Blown Slant vs Big Block A

I'm a newbie to slant 6s, but I think I heard someone say that they had 6 bolt mains... Is this the reason the engine is so bullet-proof? If so, I could easily understand why guys are building them up for performance...

nope... they have two bolt main caps... and they have 4 main caps...

as for wy they are so strong is because they were cast in the molds for the aluminum blocks... so there is alot of meat where it needs it...
