Thanks for the input guys, well I took my time setting pre-load and end float on all the engine internals when I built this motor, and crank turned perfect IMHO when I was all done, where it had been binding a bit when I took it apart, so I made sure everything was set perfect.
But some things do come to mind, one I'm making 106HP and have been running it hard on the track for over 3 years, second, main bearings did not fit as good as I would have liked into the case. I prefer a nice snug fit, one side was a bit too loose and it had spun at one point in it's life. I used red loctite to help keep it in place, maybe not the best thing but all I could think of at the time.
I will look at everything when I tear into it, guess it will be a good time to have crank checked for true as well...
So at least I'm not alone on this, and from the sound of it can be a little more common than I thought.... mainly what I was looking for, Thanks again
