I don't know exactly, I didn't take it apart. Possibly the filets being cut incorrectly? I'm not sure. It went across the country with a car I sold, the bearing spun in Pennsylvania. Personally, I think the new owner didn't check the oil and he knew before he left that it was leaking a bit, but I remain a bit superstitious none the less. There were a lot of spun bearings all over the country at the time and a good percentage were knowledgeable builders who turned their cranks. Basically, for the same money, I'd rather have a good polished one than a turned one.
I know where you can get a good 2.4 shortblock core for around $350, but it's a bit of a drive.
