I am sorry but aren’t squirters designed for lubrication of rods “wrist ping/ oilring” not crank i can list a whole bunch of good motors that don’t have them journals in the crank itself is what lubes the crank not the squirter.

This is why I stopped coming to this site... 7 bolts HAVE OIL SQUIRTERS. Get your facts right before you open your big mouths. I'm sorry everytime I come back over here I have to be an *******, but you're wrong. TE had it right and you start giving HIM ****? Read up kids.

Ya.. Actually the 6 bolt motor is a little different.. It has the oil squirters which the 7 bolt doesnt have.. Which most likely causes the crankwalk..
What's that then?

I never hold anything against anybody, if they learn from it.

See, we all miss things Sebba.

If you are getting into a 6bolt swap you better know how to do wiring. there are some differences no one ever points out. My suggestion look into 6bolt swap write-ups and see if you are up for that kind of work.
The wiring is a simple harness that you can purchase from RRE or Magnus. The only thing I see as being a POTENTIAL problem is cutting/trimmingthe engine mount. Other then that, both can be a weekend swap if you know what you're doing.

The 6 bolt swap is NOT a difficult swap by any means.

Edited to take out some sarcasm.
