    Default 2.8L blue motor?

    hey there, just picked up a blue 6 cylinder, i thought it was a 202, but it has 2.8L written on the side of it. is this right? or were there only 2.8L red motors?

    The VC's also had 2.8's and the specs are the same as the VH , well they should be ..

    So you have a VB with a 2.8 ?
