V6 plenum differences.
« on: 02 May 2009, 19:32:05 »

Hi all this is probably a numpty question but. I was under the impression the plenum chambers between the 2.5 and 3.0lt differed with the 3.0lt having a much longer "snout" to the butterflies. Did the real early 3.0lts have the short snout like the 2.5's or should all of them have the long "snout"

The longer snout plenums was introduced in late 97 with the introduction of the mini facelift Omegas...as said, before that all plenums were the shorter type

Cheers guys. I guess it was introduced to improve mid range torque?
