I have heard that since the 4L in the Aurora had used some of the technology of the 4.6L Northstar, it earned the 4L the unofficial nickname of the "Shortstar"...

This reminds me - I saw an Aurora on the way home yesterday; L-plate read C DAT 1...
Someone else is proud of owning part of a dwindling breed...
