Thanks for the feedback....one last question. Since you have seen a few failures already in this last design, besides the outer bearing diameter being a little larger so that it can't fit threw (hence the total engine teardown) my question is are the actual bearings larger in this dual row design than previous dual row IMS bearings? Are they ceramic? Did the seal dissolve? Thanks for the help!
