Only chevy guys use ford rear ends and mopar lifters. Mopar has a strong rear end that actually creats less friction then the ford 9. The 8 3/4 that mopar uses is just as strong but more durable because of the reduction in friction. the lifter thing is because chevy uses the smallest lifters of the big three when using mopar lifters and mopar lobes on a cam you will see more hp then chevy lifters and lobes make with same lift and duration. Just a few things I learned as a mopar guy I have a 800 page mopar building book that lists performace mods. lists some ford and chevy stuff.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Lambo doors belong on a Lamborghini. Nothing else. Returning the doors to opening normally would be the first thing I did when I got the truck home. And if it needs to be repainted, it would be all black.

Kinda tells you something about Lambo doors doesn't it? I think they were a gimmicky idea to begin with. Something that made the Lamborghini stand out from the other italian sports cars.

Maybe when Lamborghini saw people putting their door system on everything from Honda Civic tuners to Ford pickup trucks, Lamborghini said that's it. The magic is gone.
