I'll get some video of the IMS bearing out of this one so everyone can see one right prior to failing - it's amazing!

Charles:
Did the connecting rod bolt actually break apart or did it just start to unscrew itself?
How much mileage on the engine?
Any indications of overrevs or was it another cause?
I know of another M96 engine with a similar failure and am trying to compare notes.
