I believe the S58 will go down as the best I6 engine, it makes unbelievable power and yet problem free. The finally got an engine that is completely sorted. Too bad all of the cars they put it in are huge.
Agreed, the crank hub is not a great design, but it's not a show-stopper. Even with the crank hub issue, the S55 seems to be a pretty solid engine. The S58 is an incremental improvement in many ways, but I'm not fond of the timing chain being at the back end of the block.
