I wonder what the reason/logic is? It's new-at-introduction, so there 
were two manifolds out in the market on nearly identical motors (199 vs. 
232). Perceived market-use? Was some big fleet (telephone companies, 
etc) demanding some sort of cold-weather thing with the 199, so AMC just 
did it across the board? Or is it some sort of left-hand-lugnut silliness?
