I thought about that and talked to a friend about it but we agreed that I am not running a 2000hp engine with a converter forcing the crank forward. I am running a pretty mild engine with a reasonable clutch and should be able to either setup to a better bearing like the Federal with the ramped thrust pads that promote better oiling or change over to the larger thrust bearing.

Has anyone seen a hemi modified to accept the large thrust bearing? I dont think the stock crank had enough bearing surface and I have not had time to check my new crank that arrived last night.
