Low end power differences??

[djminkin]

I know this has been an endless discussion::!!! Ive been reading the posts on the differences between the two engines (95 and 98) and still am a little confused as to which car provides the best low end power. Both cars have a similar 0-60 time, but have read that the 95 cars dont really get moving until the upper rpms. What is the best car for low end quickness around the town driving, and what would have to be done to the car to make it the same?

The 3.2L has the bigger low-middle torque grunt. A lot of people exchange that for higher top horsepower with the M50 manifold.

anybody else have any experience with both cars

Have best of both worlds, had the 95 3.0L, now the 3.2L (but running OBDI) 3.2L has more low-end torgue, best for daily driving around town. Just like everyone else mentioned, get the M50 manifold and you'll be set.

Yep. It's certainly the most worthwhile mod I have for the money.
