I have asked this before, but I just wanted to hear again what this crank whip is. From what I understand "crank whip" is vibration from the crankshaft on the duratech motors that causes bearings to spin at high rpm. Do people really belive that this is the primary cause of engine failure in these motors? I was just wondering. If this is what crank whip is that means EVERY TIME YOU REV YOUR MOTOR up to the rpm that this "crank whip" becomes a problem you run a chance of blowing it up. I just don't see how ANY motor could make it very far at all in a car with this problem.
