   I was checkin' on these the other day. The MSD part number is
32189. (If you order from Summit ($65.95), their part number is
MSD-32189, I believe.) The guy who looked it up for me said he couldn't
find a '96 Dakota 318ci application, but there was one for the 318ci
Ram, and that was the part number. I searched through the archives,
and that's the same part number that Bill posted when he bought his, so
I'm guessing that's right.

   I just got some new plugs yesterday (Champion Gold Truck); my
understanding is, because I am running the stock ignition and coil, I
should set the gap at the stock setting of .035"; is that correct? If I
were to get a Blaster 3 coil at some point, would I open up the gap then,
or should it only be done after an actual ignition upgrade?
