Yeah, needless to say the rest front assembly was less than stellar.

I actually looked up the name for the part, because I never really bothered to learn its proper name. The FSM calls it "Thrust Plate", and the plate that bolt to the stationary gear is referred to as a "Plate". The "Thrust Washer", per the FSM, is the piece just behind the counterweight.
S4 FSM, Chapter 1 Engine, Pg 1-31
But yeah, thrust washer sounds better.

This wasn't my own engine, it was a core that was sent to us (rx7store).
It appears that someone took the front pulley off and the torrington bearings shifted. Put it all back together, and ran the engine for quite a while.
The stationary gear and rotor bearings were fine.

Yep, seen it before.
Dropped the Torrington bearing, and the eshaft wants to shoot out the front cover.
This usually eats the front stat gear bearing too though, right?
