Re: 97 spyder has improved engine?

Of course there was no fix to it because nothing they did prevented it.

However, them using a split thrust bearing in the 98/99 is true and a way that is thought to make it less likely to walk. The 95-97 thrust bearing is a single piece.

Search on split thrust bearings, you'll find some good info.
