It seems like a lot of the '91 350s have ASD. Not sure if they made it a standard feature right before they discontinued the car or what. '91 was a weird year with a bunch of 350SDL exclusive parts and options.
Are you sure? I’ve only seen ARV in ‘87s and ‘86s with a trap oxidizer. I hear not all ‘86s had a trap oxidizer. There’s no trap from ‘90 so they shouldn’t have ARV either. 140 SDs don’t have ARV. Certainly my ‘93 SD didn’t have ARV.

Are you sure also about boost control? IIRC 90-91/.970 don’t have a MAP sensor so they can’t have vacuum boost control.
