Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
Don't do it. 7 bolt and rebuild should not be in the same sentence. My brother's car walked with less than 100 miles after the rebuild, he bought a rebuilt crank, and had a 2100# clutch, but still... I would save your time and money.

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
My problem is I cant afford anything else now and either way I'm not going to swap a 6 bolt untill next summer so I might as well try espically when its only going to cost $300 or less for everything. I think I'm going to trust my machienest on this one, granted he's not a dsm guy but he is so good at what he does it like cheating.

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
Hopefully it will work out. $300 isn't too bad either.

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
I would never rebuild a 7bolt that's already walked, just me though. I would have no problem rebuilding a regular 7 bolt, people just write them off.

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
Correct me if I'm wrong but walking doesnt effect the block just the crank and/or bearings.

that depends on what theory you believe is behind crankwalk, heh. Also it may just be a bad luck thing but it you look around you'll see that a lot of people walk again after rebuilding a walked motor.

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
I'd never touch a 7 bolt, previously walked or not.

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
I don't see any problem with him rebuilding his 7 bolt. Heck, If I was rebuilding mine stock I would redo my 7 bolt too. It made it well past 100k miles. If he is gonna drive it for another 100k and it walks again then you can either rebuild it again or buy a 6 bolt. Its cheaper than a brand new car in my opinion...

Re: rebuilding the 7 bolt
my 97' gs-t has 163k on it and run great. it pulls pretty damn hard. when it comes time to replace the timeing belt Im going to do a rebuild. Eagle makes forged 4340 steel crankshafts. which would elminate the main bearings being harder then the crank right? SBR sells rebuild kits for the 7 bolts for $500.

Dont need a rebuild kit. Only thing that is coming off is the oilpan and mains. And my motor only has 65k on it
