Hi Bud Man,

I am sorry to hear about your newly rebuilt engine, but your thrust change with your engine is completely unacceptable.

There is babbitt from your rear main bearing thrust surface in your pan.

I would guess that the thrust area of the Crankshaft is rough and has gouged into the thrust surface of the babbitt.

This needs to be returned to the engine rebuilder, it should Not be run again until it is determined what is cutting your thrust babbitt.
