All 7 bolts crankwalk. Yes if would bolt right up. Regardless of forged internals or not... it can still crankwalk.

hes probably getting it cuz of a good deal or something. If i were you i would take this oportunity to go 6-bolt, but if thats all you can afford to do now then go for it. I dont think you should encounter any problems. All the mounts are the same. The internals are differnent but that doesnt matter.

ebay = sketchy. Id try and stay away from it. I would look on dsmtrader and find people selling there long block. There are alot of people that are. I am still trying to sell my 6-bolt short block.
