K Kuhrazy Registered Mar 24, 2014 #1 Just out of curiousity... Is there anything that can be done with crankshafts if a rod was blown, or a bearing spun? I have two lying around, and I'm not sure what to do with them Thanks!

K Kuhrazy Registered Mar 24, 2014 #3 thanks! It wasnt an issue of saving, more like, offloading them. Even for crap money at this point. They're taking up space.
