mistake number two...don't have an oil pressure gauge, or at least I don't think it works right, it is maxed out to the right side of the dial and never moves.
step two is putting in a new gauge after get the engine back together, fortunately my son is doing the labor with my help at n/c, just have to pay for the bearings and gasket kit, about $200 unless I have to have the crank turned. thanks for the input...
by the way...when you have a crank turned, what does that do to the bearing fit, do you get special spec bearings...?
