I don't know if this is a good thing or not, since most common modern shells do not incorporate side thrusts.

In all of the inserted A engines I have, there is no side thrust face on the insert. That is taken care of by 3 bronze crescents placed in machined recesses in the block so maybe mine are from AER.
