The bad journal wasn't super course, and i was afraid of taking too much meat off the crank by sanding or polishing it. Ended up just slapping a bearing on it too and the car runs alot better.

Still has a extremely faint knock, but the damn thing runs! I think that rod and cap that had the spun bearing are definitely toast too, im sure it got cooked real good and warped. The cap was pretty tough to put on. The car lives! 50$ engine rebuild lol
