    Quick oil pan bolt question

    I ran a level sender in my LSx in the Mk3... 9 parts useless unless you were standing still Dan.. I ended up setting the MoTec Dash to bang a 2000 rpm limiter if the oil pressure was under xx @ yy rpm.

    Welp it happened

    It will be stamped on the Shells, NDC on NDC's ;) Let me qualify my dislike of the Kings bearings, it's only the BiMetal bearings I've seen smear/fail, don't know anyone that's used King Trimetals so don't have an opinion and I'm not sure just what they supply for a 7M.

    What kind of tach signal does the factory tach need to see?

    Have you checked to see how accurate it is on the AEM? Mine on the standalone was all over the place above 5000rpm.

    Welp it happened

    Genuine 77's have some unique Tech to them, I used NDC bearings in my 7M's they're one of the best of the Japanese bearings are are sometimes in the Clevite boxes, sometimes they're ACL's but ACL don't do their race series bearing for the 7M, now and again I've heard of Kings in Clevite boxes...

    No such thing as "Clevite 77" bearings for a 7M ;) Only lucky dip boxes from Clevite!
