The Sport package had absolutely nothing to do with performance, it was just an appearance package. So how does an appearance package get you 5 more HP? It doesn't.

Second of all, the 1994-2001 Dodge Rams did not use the LA V10.

When you Google and quote something, please double check your sources.

These are not 100% guaranteed, but these should be pretty darn close. My original numbers came from allpar.com, and I find many places that just quote the original 1994 numbers.

Changes I made to your list are in bold.

Nastiness deleted. Keep it civil, guys.

 

Jason,

Had you of said, "I think there is more accurate information at allpar.com, here it is" or something to that effect, i think this would have ended a whole lot differently and, IMO, a lot better.

 

Jason is right. There were several changes made to the Magnum line-up as well as the Cummins engines over the years. All I know for sure is my 99 318 is 230hp and 300 lb-ft.

 

I said the same thing to him privately, so let's just move on. I edited your post since the quote has been deleted.
