Thanks Bob,
Your Dikes manual mentions end play on the crank journal of .008" to .012", plus associated end play on the wrist pin. This engine is worse than that. With the car up on the lift and pan removed, I could shake the #1 and #2 rods back and forth on the journal and get a pretty good clunking sound. Wrist pin side to side clearance was worse than the rod. The gang was not buying my end play theory, but nobody had any better ideas, either.
