Crank whip...high RPM's the crank actually flexes, the bearings "wipe" the crank, plugging the oil holes...now you have metal on metal. You can't hear crank whip itself...you can hear the results...usually a knocking...and you can feel it too, in your wallet..

because to get Ford to pay for ANYthing is about as likely as Mars sprouting arms and coming over to earth and shaking us all upsidedown for our loose change.
ps where do I get one? - I didnt have one and I toasted my bearings- my next motor wil have one- if I can get one!

Costs alittle more from him, but he was the first to offer it. Plus he posts on the forums, always answering questions people have for him. So why not buy it from a fellow CEGer?
