Terry: Thanks for the info. Don't know the details of the test, (duration, RPM's, etc.) but sounds convincing enough. Possible that real world testing is of insufficient duration....

Further to ScottK's ?, can you comment on the crank itself? Did Ford change the process/material anywhere along the line? IIRC, our cranks are tuftrided/nitrided. Someone said that the early motors are more durable-any truth to that?
