Any motor can develop play in the crankshaft. Please don't try and make that out to be some kind of fatal flaw inherit only in a 4g63 motor.
And Evan, I'm sure those 4g63's that "exploded" were found in an Evo8 right? No, they weren't? You mean they were found in an older car? What? Those were 10 year old engines? And they failed on a hard day at the track? That makes me mad, hearing about a stock motor letting go at such a young age. Oh wait. They weren't stock? Their owners had actually done something to increase the power output of their vehicle? That is a total shame. I can't understand how an older, modified, tracked car could develop an engine problem.
Apology up front if somehow a Evo8 or late model DSM is actually what "exploded."
But yeah, please kids, 4g63 vs whatever those funny boxer engines are called isn't even a question.
