As you have mentioned, as of June 06, they did come with the F6 bottom end, but... Who knows actually what date in June it started. It might not have been the first day in June (as they wouldnt throw away any blocks that hadnt been used just to give the customer a stronger bottom end - yeh right!).I think your probably gonna have to ask Senna, he will probably be along shortly anyways.It might mean that you have to actually get the engine number (will be on the block somewhere and probably different to the VIN number). Senna might be able to put it through a system(?) for ya and check... Let us know how ya go anyways Luke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
