My engine builder was underneath my car yesterday measuring the distance my crank has moved with a micrometer and it is 4 thouosands over. From what he said the range is from 4-8 thousands and mine is 12 thousands. How bad is that. He suggests I pull the engine and replace the bearings if it gets worse and I want to run it hard. Should I wait for Spring, yank it now, or just leave it. I always like a second opinion. Thanks.
