it sorda sounded like a rod bearing? but it wasent so i am sorta thinken it was a main bearing, it locked up, i have everything to build a block right, except for sleeving it, a non sleeved block is good for like 420 whp, im just gonna wait and fire that thing in, i dident want to miss flashlights but i guess it will be worth it, ---
