We have developed the IMS Solution as a final solution to IMS retrofit bearing replacement thats recommended for single row equipped cars only. The single row bearing simply is not large enough and even the "best" bearing that can be made still simply is not large enough for the load seen within the engine.

Basically all we have done is backdated the bearing design to that of the aircooled engine that utilized a layshaft. GT3/ Turbo engines also use the same design.
