Brand new through out bearing! I am going to investigate this week one night.
 Just a 350, new rings, bearings, hi volume oil pump, cloyes double roller chain, with RV cam, and an Edlbrock performer. It was built a long long time ago. Put about 500 miles on it, and the harmonic balancer fell off do to the bolt breaking. It mowed the end of the crank on one side of the key way. It sat in that truck for almost 14 years. I put a new key in it and filled in the crater in the crank with weld. Ground and filed it smooth so another balancer would fit, and called it good.
