Brian, AKA (mk-zero) is our resident engine expert but there are more than one of us that could help you out. Like I said before, sounds to me like your crank end play may be out of wack, did you build the motor? This is for the 64 right?

I had some guy out in PHX do the build . I called the guy that built it and he said that my case is just worn which maybe the case but he would take a look at it this coming Friday ! I have another motor that I have to go pick up in cali when I get my bus,so I may just reseal the good used motor and cruise that for the mean while. I may have to have "Brian" check my motor out also. Thanx for the support !

He lives out there now, but we can get that engine apart and mike out the bearing journals, and if we have any more questions, send him a P.M.


Brian, any ideas?
