I think if you had a crank shaft ground and put it in the engine the caps tightened up would bend it back and the centrifugal force and heat would be ok.
I think this is a bunch of old tales.Like they used to say if you took the dist out it would never run agsin.And the other stupid thing was and engine runing backward. Seems it not oil and more.
