the timing components got stronger over the years
Otherwise intakes changed and some plumbing.
97 sohc has return fuel and uses a fuel line and regulator that is near impossible to find anymore
the 01+ SOHCs we see high miles from them
The 04 SOHC we see VERY high miles from them with regular oil changes,, Im talking 250-350K miles
Once the weak timing components are addressed these engines are tough as nails!
the early ones simply had crappy timing parts
