    From bluebook

    I have a series 3 vs statesman with engine number VM-###### which is
    found in the series 1 vt's. From the above specs it can be seen that
    VM-###### engine numbers have greater horsepower and torque.
    Therefore I'm guessing that these are roller motors. So check your engine number.
