Juan you know my opinion. we argue it all the time. But does anyone think that the later 3 piece thrust bearing has anything to do with preventing crankwalk? Im still all about the nitraded crank. When it comes time for me to pick one up from Jerry I will be calling him.
I know that my motor in my car had 80k on it when I bought it. I put an additional 55k on it. And a good 50k of it was with out the clutch pedal switch mod. A week before I spun a rod bearing the BROTHERS checked the crank for end play and there was no signs of the crankwalking.
All that im saying is that nitrading and the three piece bearing in the later 98 99 blocks is the 7 bolt I would go with.
