Makes you wonder what changed in the newer gen non SC 6.2s and LT4s that the rod and main bearings are a problem when they weren't before?
Different bearing supplier? Redesigned oiling system? Metal machining debris (what the toyota 3.4L TT failures were blamed on). Something else?
I think waiting till the facelifted 2025s hit the street is will make the 2022 to 2024s a bit cheaper.
You might even find a good deal on a new left over 2024 once the 2025s are on lots.
My wife has a x3m Comp, same drive train and platform, similar interior to the M3 xdrive comp. I would...
Well I think part of the reason why this forum isn't as active anymore is that this forum had a rather meteoric rise in popularity, and the reason for that sudden popularity is now gone.
Prior to the release of the Blackwings it looked like this forum was pretty dead and most of the V car...
True, but I kinda want to get a sense of the denominator we are dealing with.
We don't have 6000 active members on this site. If its 9/6000 then it's a rare failure, but if it's closer to 9/100 active posters then it's more concerning.
Well I think Ford has a pretty good opportunity on their hands if they can capitalize on it.
They already have a 5.0 V8, 10speed auto and 2 6 speed manual transmissions in the Mustang. Though options can jack up the price, the Mustang V8 still starts at 45k.
If they can design an edgy new 4...

CT4 V Blackwing Vs Mustang Mach 4 comparison will be interesting. Maybe if Ford stuffs the 5.0 NA Coyote into a 6 speed manual sedan, GM is going to have to respond.
I wonder whats going to happen the Spring Mountain. Will they get some precision package cars? Will they match people who got the package with those cars?
Yeah my dad's got one of those Tundras.
The difference is that Toyota is recalling them and is going to replace 100k motors. GM has a bottom end problem on top of the known lifter issue, with the 6.2 with numerous main bearing and rod bearing issues but chooses to ignore the problem and refuse...
Know its not a Blackwing.
But...

Holy fucking shit balls...
Now I know why the Blackwing twin turbo V8 died. It's because this monster screeching bald eagle ate it while it was trying to leave the nest.
What...
I ain't rich like most of you guys here, but I will say the 5BW is the first time in my life where I don’t feel at all like that guy in the video when it comes to a purchase.
Even if you gave me 5 million dollars to buy a vehicle, I can't come up with a car I'd rather be driving. Mostly...
