On the other hand I have never seen an L27 throw a rod... I have seen 1 LN3 drop a rod( ran low on oil ).... So far I feel that the older series I engies were built better... But then again look at how many 3800 engines have been built over the years...lol... Thats not a bad track record as compared to the ford 1.9'*, 3.8'* and 4.0'* I have seen blow up...lol

Hmmm...ever? That'* a tall claim. I still say that Ford'* Cleveland block 351 is the best ever.
