The front rod bearnig recieved dirty oil from the dirty oil coiler and wiped out the rod bearing and of course the already turned crank. maybe my oil coller was dirty from the first time when all the mains went but i still would go for a new biger one i replaced that one with a larger one than the stock one. and by the way i have the old engine all fresh with new crank and large oil coller with a big deamon carb and pump,alt, starter,efi ready to plug in if anybody is interested. gen 6 454 with rollers. new cast ex stock.
