Can anybody confirm this?
Sounds correct to me. The FF units were the heaviest-duty for sure & I don't recall ever seeing a GM corporate axle larger than the 11.5" 14bolt.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
