I required the shorter plug on my 93. Even still, it
was a tight squeeze to get it in and out. I sold the
pipe but I believe I am still running the short plug.

The 3.2 will probably get the longer plug only because
I think that's what's in the spare 3.0 oil pan. (not
that anyone cares)

3.2 on hold :(
