Well a rather annoying twist in the tale. Installed the crank the other day after completing all pre assembly prep. Everything seemed ok bar a slight bit of clearancing needed on the girdle plate. Took everything off and found a whopper of a scratch on one of my main bearings. Annoyed doesn’t come close!
I know the block and crank were crystal clean so I can only assume that my old pot of assembly lube had become contaminated with a bit of grit or who knows what. What are the odds?!?
So, yet again, a thorough clean of block and crank before sealing away on clean bags while I await new bearings to arrive….. and a NEW bottle of assembly lube by @torcousa via @nimbusmotorsport

Mine is slowly dying lol, left channel is about dead and its not liking having the balence cranked right over to compensate on my big wharfdales.
Just bought Guitar hero for the 360 for my kid and I'm thinking a replacement amp may well be in order!
As usual on a shoe string budget lol
What you do have?
