Great, I'm f*cked...Threw a rod...(bearing)

I admire your attitude. Most would just lay down and die...whether it runs good, or it blows up, at least you did SOMETHING!

It just might run fine, you'll only know if you try.
I'm laughing right now because of how you described the situation...with the crank 1 inch from your face and oil dripping everywhere. ha! Been there! And it sucks!

Carry on!
