    crushed cyl #8 sparkplug

    Autolite 764's with the gt40p heads. If they were the wrong plugs wouldnt more than one be crushed? I have no idea what would cause this.

    Difference between 89 and 90-93

    The only differences I know of are the '89s had tilt steering and no airbags, and the interior has some minor changes over the years.
