I dunno man... never trust a 7bolt Nate. What could they even do to it?
They also mispelled lifetime. Or did they? It says "lifttime warranty against thrust failure" maybe that just means so long as that car spends all its time on a lift (and off the road), that bitch is warranteed to work just fine...
I could see that phone call now:
Nate: Yea, mother****ers, I just CWed your ****ing unwalkable 7bolt! Im tryin to get some warranty action here!
Salesman for "AEM": Oh well, was the car on a lift during this whole time?
Nate: Well... no... does that make any sense??
Salesman: Im afraid your ****ED then, clearly stated on our Ebay page it says that we warranty them only during thier lifttime, good day. -click-
lmfao

DONT BUY AN EBAY MOTOR! i did and sort of got skrewd i think i need a new head because the compression is low when i hand crank it, or its just me not turning it faster. make sure you get a pic of internals beacuse my # 1 piston and crank had head wear on it.

jp, the cause of crankwalk, as i understand it, is when the crank bearings wear down and you get too much play in the crank, then the engine goes kaboom if you rev it too much.. thats what i got outa another forum i read.. thats why they bored it in that picture to prevent wear on the bearing

No no no, the crank walks for a few reason working together. Mainly the oil squirters. they are junk and in a horrible sopt they provide very low PSI at idle (esspecailly with the clutch in and start up) That causes friction, the bearings are not that strong and the crank is also not very strong. Over time the squiters tend to clog up as well. just like any motor with low amounts of oil youll spin a bearing
