Re: [FWDLK] History of Mopar Engine Families

Not all Mopar parts counters have Mopar Performance News.  The
only copy at my small town dealership belongs to the Service
Manager and he ain't givin' it up!

I'd love to see the article.  Can someone scan it and offer to
attach it for those of us in the outback with computers capable
of receiving?
