Just curious, but does anyone for a fact that this same process is applied to the engine in our trucks? Has anyone ever verified the grease marks or whatever they are that they use in the video?

They show how the viper engine is assembled. I posted it because at some point they mention the weight. I've seen it published as anywhere between 500 and 580. But it is kind of a moot point if you have actually weighed yours.
