Just wondering if there are any of the front wheel drive EXAs
with the ca18de that dont have the crank girdle?

It seems Sylvia ones all have the girdle and I took it
off to check its weight and its has to weigh maybe 2kg.
I was surprised how soft the main bolts are from factory
and also how strong the webbing is inside these blocks.
I doubt this block needs the girdle even over 400hp.
Its similar to the toyota 2tc engine which in puerto rico
are making over 800hp with.

Also Ill be on the lookout for a simple crank, alternator,
water pump single pulley kit but its seems the crank one
is only available separately.

Also anyone know of an external filter kit as the factory
ca18de filter is for like a lawn mower very poor.

eg. which size????
