The crank is not perfect? The rod bearing spun and was thin as hell along with a burnt eagle rod after the accident, but did not melt to the crank. I should know because it was my engine and I did this. I basically just went 100% wot when oil was not normal temp and this is what caused the failure. Stupidity. The crank was polished and re-done, but when he builds it he still needs to install rod bearings and check clearances to see if in spec. Needs to be balanced as well. Then what the heck, give it a try!
