I'm pretty sure you can get better rates. The tech tried to report the actual time spent, which was much less than 2 hours. Then the service advisor (at the dealership) tried to explain to me about the effort that went into getting this "aftermarket" part to fit. I was late for work and didn't want to deal with it.

One of the owners reported leaking crank seal, but I wonder if it was from too much effort installing the crank pulley. That's what I'm worried about the most, but so far I don't see any oil drips.

In terms of gains, I've gained smoothness. Throttle effort is lighter, and it's much easier to drive smooth (1st-2nd shift, or quicker shifts). It just feels light and much more pleasant to drive. The MPG meter seems to hover much higher in the high gears when cruising. 5th and 6th gear effort on the highway when going uphill is much better than before.
