nothing new with gm and ford, or gm ford and the world for that matter. I left off with thier similarities as counterbalanced v8s. ford liked longer strokes than gm. Similar in every way, differences by brand unique. I hope this means drivelines like a 120v6 or 3 main boxer is a possible to put on planet earth instead of perfectly factual dreams…and do not forget the benz crank for every v or flat engine…We ain’t seen nothin yet. Imagine a slightly larger thought into a little subaru 1781? Holy crap. and they thought the beetle changed the world thought process..I hope something real steps out as standard. the 50+ year old menatality is of course a modern dud, including the hemi dodge. The only real eneinge seems to be the v8 diesels. A great place for counter balancer cranks. I babble.
