[QUOTE="Ry_Trapp0, post: 11215383, member: 27761"] do you think the continental challenge race car use played a greater role in the piston squirter decision on the boss? the 302R race cars are using the same engine as what is being put in the production boss 302, so maybe they wanted the piston squirters eliminated for main bearing oiling priority. or maybe it was just to get every ounce of efficiency out of the engine - scraping up the milliseconds that the oil windage may cost - due to the racing use. either way, i've thought the whole oil windage "problem" sounded a little odd and blown out of proportion from the start. i have no doubt there is some truth to it, but i REALLY doubt that it's noticeable in a production car - even in lap times during a track session. the coyote engineers did make a huge deal about the 5.0l actually having piston squirters after all, going as far as saying that it's the #1 feature they've wanted in the mod motor since it was released back in '91.
