: Well that makes one of us!!!  I thought the car was a
: runner when I bought it, but when I drive it I'll
: probably forgive it for all of this.  
: 
: Probably.
: 
: So:
: 
: I got the crank from my machinist.  
: I trust him as we go back 20 years.
: 
: I used lube correctly on all surfaces that require it
: and not under/between anything that didn't.
: 
: I checked the caps and they are oriented correctly as
: far as I can tell - just like their brothers.
: 
: Worst case:  I buy a new pair as I did with the ones
: that got fried when we started this up.
: 
: I'll pull the two off and have them checked.  I forgot
: to say that they are on different journals, and that
: the other rod on each that's already installed does
: not bind, consequently do not suspect the crank being
: undersized or oversized - everything is stock.
: 
: My machinist said that he's seen them where they are
: not 2.5 inches in diameter and need to be opened up. 
: 
: I'm just happy that we're at 6 out of 8, which means
: that this is just a little hump to get over.  
: 
: Will take them out and have them checked.  
: 
: 
: Hopefully button the engine up Monday or Tues, drop
: later in the week, and then reconnect everything.
: 
: Am not looking forward to re-connecting the shift
: cable - will address that here later when I get to it.
: 
: 
: thanks guys!
