Every bearing in my motor is shot! Still trying to find out why? I'm thinking the crank is not true. I'll know more on monday.

Wasn't the builders fault. The crank was bought used, I had the machine shop check it out, and they said was ok. Also, the floats in my carb got stuck and dumped a bunch of fuel in the motor. I ran the car for about 20 minutes before I realized what happened. When we dumped the oil, I'm guessing there was about 6qts of fuel in there. That could have played a part in it also. We are gonna index the crank monday to verify. We'll see.
