I guess I'll take your word for it. I thought the Cleveland and Windsor
power plants were completely different in each of the areas you just said
they are common.
I remember as a kid (with my father in car business) that when a car was
listed with a Ford 351, the first question was, Cleveland or Windsor? The
performance specs were different, and the physical size was different. Or
that's what I remember thinking at the time.
