Tex, if you are replacing the bearings, remember to check the crankshaft journals for wear! Don't want to go through all that trouble of replacing the bearings just to tear them up again because a journal is out of round.

My dad is a 20+ year ASE Mastertech and has built a few badass motors back in the day, I have a **** fine person to work with.
Have to measure the journals anyways for bearing size, so all will be noticed.
It will be good to have full power again. Even before the noise it has been weak at higher RPM.
In other news the dash is complete now!
new gauge cluster and dash pad for xmas. Looks sweet inside
