Ya, I thought most folks would decline spending that much for a crankshaft. But I didn't know what kind of predicament you were in.
How many journals were damaged ?
I would have had it built back up and reground if it were mine.
You made a good choice. IMHO.
found place in georgia real good on cranks, carrying block to chattanooga to get sleeve work done, its a ton more economical doing it this way, i cant justify buying one at auction with unseen issues, i know whats been done mine and besides im using all this old stuff help my son clear land thats been timbered and we aint got jars buried all in the yard full of money, that turned me into a fixer early on, thanks for the help.

Just to give everybody a update on the sleeve removal situation, this engine doesnt have sleeves, model number 3d95s-w-1, maybe this will save somebody some head ache, mines getting sleeves anyway, its at a shop to have the block cut down and installed, my cylinders might have been oblong but i would have taken the chance, crank is at another shop getting turned on one journal, it might be end of summer but ill have it back running, all total ill have about 2 grand in it at the end but couldnt find a engine in my price range, be glad see my old pc50uu-1 running again, thanks for everyones help.
