I bought the car 7 years ago. Drove it right away for about a year and a half. Sat for a year, then drove it for another year and a half. The last stint as been sitting for about 3 years. I havn't tried to start at all in the past 3 years becuase the water pump went out and the fan went through the radiator. I finally decided to just go back through the car so i pulled the engine. I'm gonna pull the crank and take it to have a machine shop check it out. I tried mic'ing it but my tools are crappy, and combined with the wobble of the engine stand, i couldn't get an accurate reading.

If its no good, i might just have to look into stroking it.

Oh ya is the number 1 bearing the front of the engine or back?
