Shopping for a 3rd Gen What should I look out for

[Semicrazy]

Prairie Dog:



Early model 03 was the last SO 245 HP/460 TQ motor was produced. Not sure what month production provided only 305 HP/505 TQ HO motors. I waited until DC produced the HO w/ the 48RE.

Wiredog,

You could get CA,SO,HO from 03 up to 04. 5 (04 ended in DEC/04. 5 started in Jan)



Here is a link of an 04 SO (also can tell by VIN 8th digit is 6)

SO - vin 6 - was 250hp, 460tq (I believe CA was 235hp, same tq)

HO - vin C - was 305hp, 555tq
