Remember that the brown Hitachi 351 V6 POSs will work in the short term.

Default Question Dave - (thread hijack) why only "short-term"?

I've got one 'brownie' and one Bosch now and plugs don't seem to show any diff between cyl.

Having just enough electronics to be dangerous, knowing that a POS is just a triple-darlington stack of power transistors, I'm not sure why Hitachi couldn't make a fine replacement, unless we have some collective experience otherwise? No reputation for the brown ones to fail in V6 applications, right?
