I keep hoping the motor will implode so I can put an LS1 in it, but it keeps on purring like a kitten.
You crack me up Randall. Ever notice in the Renegade videos featuring LS motors they gingerly ease off the start and through first gear, shift into second then roll into the throttle, makes me wonder about the torque limits of the Porsche trans-axles.

As others have noted, it's wise to address the IMS bearing when other work is needed in the area. Otherwise, if you're fine playing the percentage numbers which are in your favor, leave it be. If it worries you and the cost isn't too prohibitive, have it done or for that matter do it yourself, it's really not that tough if you follow the procedures.
