[QUOTE="sn95jones, post: 1122168, member: 15489"] So due to limited amount of money I have and choices I have decided to just fix my rod bearings. Im going with bi-metal rod bearings instead of tri-metal. My only concern at this point is what the crank is going to look like. I honestly don't see why it would have any scarring or damage since the car hasn't been driven not has the rpms exceeded over 2000 rpms since the day I spun the bearing. We have came to conclusion that the cause to this was because she was starving for oil. Probably not much but enough to have spun the bearing since it was #8 cylinder and I've been told that the #8 bearing normally gets damaged by lack of oil. So today I went to start it and let it idle, at idle the knock is nonexistent. Up until 2000 rpm. Watch the video, I know it won't say much but tell me what you guys think, how likely is it that I did some damage to the crank?
