Old Engine Q
whats are the characteristics/specs on the old (80'*) 3800'*? The LG3 the LN3, etc? I know none are supercharged, but what are the differences and stuff? Since I only drive Series II'*, I have almost no info on these types of engines, and I thought I should brush up on my bonnie heritage.

One of the most common problems with the LN3 was the cam magnet breaking. I have heard as many Code 41 stories as I have heard upper intakes failing on Series II mills :?

There is a post in 87-91 about just that problem...good ol code 41...did you catch it? I'm sure you have some good insights further to what I wrote down.
