Yeah cause cross bolts and deep skirts are a HUGE deal.

Tell ya what, the new Ford Modular V8s have cross bolted mains, too...and that was to hold them together because they broke apart easily on initial testing (so a reputable Ford engine builder told me). Not as a "performance enhancing addition" or because of the obviously huge market for performance add-ons with F150's and Expeditions. Yeah, yeah, I know they are in the Mustangs, too...

I'm not slighting the FE. I'm just saying that cross bolted mains aren't what make them hot $h!t.....

Am I right or am I right? Right? Alright!
