Yes on the intro, and not sure on the V-8 but I do know they made a magnesium centersection called a "no-change" which is really just a stock mag banjo housing.
Even if they Did dont bother trying for one,magnesium over a period of years will take in water and rot from the inside and you wont know till it's too late.Very strong light material that is a bugger to machine due to it catching fire and burning bright white hot.It has a usable shelf life sensibly in car/motorcycle aplications 10-12 years after that it should be scrapped due to safety in wheels axles brakes hubs and so on.We recently had a machine shop here in the uk go up near the airport,they were machining a piece of 8x4 sheet and the bloke went off to tea leaving the cnc going and it ran out of coolant.The factory floor was still burning 2 days later leaving a 15 foot wide by 8 foot deep crater in the concrete.Like i said it burns hot and for that reason not a lot of people will machine the stuff...............Mad Marq
