If it breaks, I'll make a point of it to post it up on here just for this thread
Engine is in fact a 7 bolt, but a later generation which has a revised split-thrust crank bearing. Doing everything I can think of to reduce stress on it too--no clutch safety so I can start the car without having to clutch it, leave it neutral at stop lights (lazy anyways), etc etc. Nothing's gone wrong yet *knock on wood* except that it won't pass emissions, but I just found a way around that too!
The local drag strip changed rules this season and requires a fire jacket on top of a helmet if you have an aftermarket turbo. I'll have numbers up as soon as I can find someone to let me borrow theirs, and THEN I'll post about it breaking
