Doug,
I'm not an expert on this, but I'll mention what I'm familiar with. They
changed the rocker design, the head design, went from carburation to a TB
and multi-port fuel injection. I don't know when they introduced the
computer. Someone else can chime in and give you more ammo. Hope this
helps you a little.

P.S. I think they changed the cam also. Don't believe it was a roller cam
in pre-mags.

Subject: DML: Magnum engines
I'm in the middle of an argument with a co-worker between Dodge and
Ford and their engines. He is a die hard Ford fan who says you can't
beat the technology in the new Ford Triton engines compared to the old
Ford engines. He claims the same for Chebbies. When I started talking
about how Dodge now has the Magnum engines, which are also better than
previous Dodge engines. Now I'm told by several people here that all
Dodge did was rename their old technology with the Magnum name.
Considering I'm new to the Dodge line and am here for life (I just Love
my DAK), I want to be able to defend myself with more than just saying "
'cause it is better, that's why!" So, can someone please explain to me
the difference between the pre-Mag engines and today's Magnum?
