I ran a 100 shot on a "stock" 3400 for years... The motor is still sitting in my driveway too, it was in my red car till I got the legacy. Never had any bearing problems in the car at all.

Well, that is pretty cool. Maybe more shops are open-minded about stuff like that than they used to be. I still don't think there is anything wrong with fixing the engine you have, if that works better for you financially. Really, that is all I was trying to say. :good:

Ya I'm going to replace the limg either by my own doing or a shop. Depends if I have time when money becomes available. For me to do a 3400 swap would be about $1200. I can put that towards another Beretta down the road vs the swap. Then just hope the motor lasts. Then start the process to get it back to stock.
