I'll have to dig around today, but I believe all of that is true of the S55 as well except the crank hub issue. Which, if the S58 is still a keyless hub design will still have some level of risk as well.

EDIT: Sources are all over the map, some saying forged rods, some saying forged pistons, some saying both on the S55. The consistent information though is the internals handle plenty of power, so it's a moot issue from that standpoint as unless you are trying for 800+hp it's a non-factor in operation.
