    torque specs are the same as stock head unless you use arp head studs - they are higher.

    He bought the first one ever made so I doubt there is anything he doesnt know about them. Then again he's not so familiar with the 2.4L EFI :p

    Having Geronimo for over 32 years since new and having several others over the years tends to gjve you some knowledge if you pay attention. Thanks for the kind words - I'll try not to get a swelled head...lol

    As long as you've had one you even saw when they discontinued them in 97. I think they should bring these small trucks back. I think it would really help mitsubishi come back to life if they advertise a small cheap pickup that has a diesel option with over 40mpg.

    The problem with having a truck like ours built today is that it would not pass crash tests without major rework, and it would have to be built in the US to avoid the 25% import tariff. Mitsubishi is not interested in the US market for trucks - their rebadge of the dogkota was a disaster sales wise.
