I know they didn't make the 8.2 in 2004. It was discontinued in 2000. Are you sure it's not an 8.1?
Got a S/N? |

Could have been done in 2004 but not with new engines from that year.
Like Rick suggests, the serial numbers will be definitive.
The 8.1's provide reasonable performance. Working on them is a bit different than an older MArk IV big block but nothing an intelligent individual can't figure out. |
