Re: Cracked 350 Crank, build 383?

Very nice looking truck. As for the engine you could remove the flywheel cover to watch the fore and aft movement of the crankshaft on both ends of the engine. Wobble of the damper is not good. Or it's yank the engine to pull the pan and give it a good look over. Lower end noise is never good. A fella used to be able to buy a stock reman'd crank kit for less than 200 for an affordable repair. A stroker crank kit runs the cost up. How deep is your pocket?

Loose torque converter bolts make a knocking noise too.
