Whats the best way of tackling a rebuilt motor with a rod knock on one cylinder, yes i know remove the crank and send it in to have it checked out. should i remove the problem piston too? because i would really like to keep the top end intact with the block , i also have a spare eta bottom end already dismantled. still dont know how bad the crank is on the car with the knock , but as soon as the knock was discovered the car has been sitting and it only knocks under load. would the crank have to be cut? I did plasti gauge all the bearings before , all the mains were in check. would i be able to re-use the mains if they are not damaged , not that i want too. also could i have created a rod knock by driving to hard on a fresh bearing motor?
