I had a 2001 that never had any. My 2007 doesn't have any.
Some did and some don't. I had 104K+ on the old car without heat cracks and I'm sure the SPI made more heat than power! :D Well, moreso than a typical gas engine anyways!
I wonder if the Duratec won't crack the paint because the exhaust is at the rear of the engine bay where the heat-retardant is and air's moving through already.
Maybe if I drove everywhere in reverse it could be a problem :P
