Re: 6bolt or 7 bolt?
What year is your car? 90 to early 92 had a 6bolt, 6bolts can hold more power and do not have problems with crankwalk (7bolts don't have that much of a problem with cw just more than the 6bolts) Check the faq that will help.

Re: 6bolt or 7 bolt?
You have a 7bolt. Unless the previous owner did swap.

Re: 6bolt or 7 bolt?
The bolt numbers are referring to how many bolts hold the flywheel to the crank shaft. If that was unclear (it was to me anyway) the "7 bolt" has 7 bolts holding the flywheel to the crank shaft, likewise the "6 bolt" has 6.
