8g/7g same shit, just inverted 180* lol
Well here's more.
I ordered and already got the wrong main bearings. Now Ill have an extra set for the red G. For whoever cares, the 96 and later 7g uses split bearing style just like 8g, 97-99 DSM and Evo 8-9.
I was surprised to see no oil leaking from the main seal.
It took me exactly 5 min to remove the pilot bearing. I used some grease and the back part of 3/8 extension, tabbed it a few times and it came out.
Its all out waiting to get washed.
Most of the work on the block is done. The balance shafts were deleted, honed the walls and resurfaced the deck top.

97-98 7gs used the thrust washer style bearings. My 96 was made late in the year and is flange not thrust washers. According to Mitsu after 1/3/97 7gs went to the thrust washer style.

Looking good man!
Tan leather door inserts would look good with what you got going on. I know in your other thread you had the question about that, now that I can see what you're going with, I'd do that. Looks great BTW!
