Oh, cool- glad I put the invoice up, didn't realize that info was there. Thx for the careful evaluation, I appreciate that! For future reference is there anything else on this engine that's different from the original M96 that was in there?

And you stated the "good news" which is usually followed by bad news- is that just that the bearing can't be removed while the engine is in place? Or am I being too pessimistic trying to find bad news? (:
