OK my "panties" aren't in a twist because I'm wrong or right, but because you always make a debate out things that aren't even the main point at hand. Seems your panties are in a twist by keeping this going with more irrelvent stuffso I'll respond.

1. Don't get your panties in a twist because you were wrong. And the digression about firing orders and the clarification took place back on page 7. It also ended on page 7. It was you who drug it back up just to tell everyone Ford was "wrong" in their cylinder numbering sequence on Page 11. So who's the one making irrelevant points?
The irreleveant point wasn't me commenting on that side topic that you were engaged in yourself, but that you made such a big issue that I casually said "every" other manufacture uses a different numbering system, when I meant chrysler and GM. My pont was that these American V8's are two-plane crankshaft designs.

2. I call you on something when its [censored]. In this instance, it was [censored]. Trying to justify GM's choice of cylinder numbering via crank plane choice, then saying Ford's choice was "wrong" because it didn't align with GM's.... That's just retarded.
I'm wrong about what? that these engines are two-plane crank V8's? Or the word "every" and I didn't classify that to mean most every Domestic? You are being more petty than a woman.

3. You did say "every". And you in no way specified that you were excluding the Germans or any other manufacturer outside of the North American market. I cited three readily verifiable examples of manufacturers that use the same numbering scheme as Ford. When you post something as an absolute, be prepared to back it up with some facts. Otherwise, don't be surprised when somebody calls you on it. I've had my [censored] handed to me in the past for doing the same thing, so I am far from immune.
Hey look I don't mind being corerected or wrong at least if the person is sensible about pointing it out. You are taking every word little word someone types on a forum too literal and if you looked at the context the discussion was about Ford, Chrysler and Chevy V8's. You take some unimportant trivial thing like the word "every" to start a petty argument. You've done this several times in the past. And it's the way you do it, with your smack talk that makes it worse.

4. You said most "V" engines. Perhaps you should have been SPECIFIC and stated "V engines from Chrysler or GM" because that's really what you meant apparently. Otherwise, you are again stating bunk, since the Germans, like Ford, number their V6's in the same manner.
I was replying to Mopar's post about american V8's. This is you just being petty to start an argument anytime some makes a point you don't agree with. So you attack them tangentially to the main point.

5. I'm not "in love" with Ford. But I'm also not the one who seems to feel the need to come up with a snooty response because the "absolute" statement that was presented as fact ended up being anything but.
No sir, you were the one thaty got snooty first. I feel I was only replying in kind And you do start an argument any time someone says they favor GM's design to Ford's.
