If my Corvette motor dies, I can go to Chevy:

It seems like Porsche would see the market for crate engines. I understand there would be a price difference from Ford & Chevy, but the skill level difference between pulling an engine and building an engine is big enough to warrant the market for crate engines IMHO.

The Ford "Fox" body is very flimsy, I worked for Steve Saleen in 1993 & he always said,"Brace it before you Race it, and we made,sold & installed all the parts to do that.
