Well, Autodata isn't always 100% accurate, but in this case there is a 
diagram, which shows the layout of the *chains*. This applies to both the  
1995 and the 2000 versions, I checked for you. So it's a fairly safe bet 
;-)

Until about 100k anyway. Have a look at the Scorpio forums. Not good news at
