Not another IMS issue again !!!!!

One problem..
The replacement engine CANNOT have the IMS retrofit applied.
Thats because the orifice in the crankcase that allows for IMS bearing access is SMALLER (by a lot) than the new IMS bearing applied since 2006 in all new and reman engines and Porsche vehicles.
The IMS bearing it comes with with live in that engine for eternity.

Yep antibiotics and pain killers. Just got a hot rush a minute ago though.
Maybe the smaller hole it to prevent the mice or squirls from escaping
Nah must be some engineers design reason like preventing movement or other concerns that would ruin integrity in the system

It's actually part of Porsche's new bi-annual engine program. A new engine every two years whether you need it (or can afford it) or not. It should be very profitable for them.

if I am not mistaken the ***** on a bigger diameter bearing have a higher surface speed than on a smaller diameter at the same rpm, so in principal if you run higher RPM's and keep the surface speed on the smaller bearing "UP" you have done the same thing. (unless its out of grease)
My guess is Porsche knew a bunch of its clients "putt" around and wanted to increase the surface speed of the bearing....or they thought "bigger was better" - though that is not the way a performance car company thinks..... right?
