Hey man, not to knock your engine builder butI have NEVER checked my "End Play". I always check the tolerences when first putting a motor together but never after I run it. I've built several motors for drag cars and most especially pulling trucks and never had that problem. We've thrown rods, broke cranks and everything else but there has never been any front to back motion on the crank that I have seen.

This could very well be a problem I should start to investigate for future reference though.
