BC Springs. Oil Analysis would come back skewed as I have run some cleaners through the engine and have only one drain pan. I did not feel any up and down play in the rods, at least not enough to think there is a bad one. But I've had a spun bearing before that I would have NEVER known about had I not been bored and pulled the rod caps.

Engine is out on the stand. Pulled rod bearings. None spun inside the rods luckily but bearings are trashed. Crank is pretty scored on cyl 3 rod journal. Advance auto has a sr20de crank kit for the g20 that come with bearings and all. Might consider this route.

A buddy of mine bought one of these kits, had to have the crank turned and buy new bearings to get proper tolerances. If you get one, make sure you have it checked out!

That is a bit concerning. Its certainly the cheaper option initially vs buying bearing and machining. But its more expensive if i have to do the same thing

Upon further inspection i see a hairline crack in the piston skirt on cylinder 2. Atleast i feel like thats what it is. There is also a weird imperfection at the bottom of the bore right where the crack is.
