HO is peppier, though.

I know what kind of oil to use, too.
Most of my late models got around 17 though my 97 gets 20. None of my Renix did that well except the one that had a HO block swap but it was a standard. I think the HO still had issues in it's younger years but they seemed to be fixed for the most part by 94

They all take the same blinker fluid though...

Using that app, having no profile, and posting as if texting
with no punctuation is a PITA for those of us willing to help otherwise.

Don't be so quick to joke... my 92 Stealth Twin-Turbo had an active exhaust that included a gated muffler. That gate turned on bearings inside the muffler therefore making them muffler bearings.

And my 01 XJ gets about 19 mpg. My Harley gets 45. My other Harley gets 51.

Ok ok guys. Trying to keep the seriousness here. The point is to know what you're saying before you say it. If you've only had a 99 and only worked on it and it alone, you aint gonna know jack squat about a Renix and barely know anything about 96 down. It's just a chance to look at what you say and think to yourself "Do I really know what I'm talking about or could I be wrong". It helps us that try to help not have to make another post correcting whatever you say or saying no that's not right, this is. Just saying...... And the Dodge SRT10 Ram came with a bearing in the exhaust flex joint - muffler bearings
