Towerdog,
I take it you are a current or ex- Connie driver. My informant told me, the man himself wouldn't invest in tooling necessary for -7Q overhaul. Therefore, he never had the approval to carry out overhauls on the motors. I know a number of current CK crew who were of the same opinion as yourself until corrected.
As for the general opinion of CK crews, I have met up with several of them and found them a pretty good bunch with the mandatory quota of tossers, as per all companies.
