Is there a source for oversized thrust bearings? I made a mistake and had my 5.9 magnum assembly balanced without checking the crank thrust first. I put the crank in to discover it has 0.020 of play when measured at the snout or with a filler gauge between the crank and thrust surface. I...

Changed plugs last night and started it up and let it warm up. Everything sounded fine and I turned it off. Was going to go for a drive today when I heard this noise shortly after starting it up. Has good oil pressure and can't see any metal on the end of dipstick but noise sounds kind of deep...

Started up the new build briefly for the first time today. 5.9 Magnum First Start - YouTube This is a stock bottom end from a 2003, rebuilt with new rings and bearings. EQ 202 heads up top, RPM Air Gap, 650 DP for now and a Oregon regrind on the cam.

Will my oil requirements be covered with the above? This is a street/strip combo I'm building. I don't want to go with a deep pan, but obviously don't want to starve the engine of oil under race conditions. This will be a ~6k RPM combo. Not sure what added capacity the remote filters will...

Can anybody recommend an online source for a simple piston ring and bearing kit for my Magnum build? This is an all STD motor that will be reassembled with the stock rotating assembly. I'd like a kit with quality parts like Clevites on the bearings. Thanks!
