Hi, driving my 56 yesterday and heard a knocking noise. Checked oil and was okay, continued to drive it until it was really noisy. towed it home and pulled the pan. Found #3 rod had too much play. Bearing pieces in the pan. I pulled the cap and removed what was left of the bearings.
Now I wanted to know if I could just replace the one rod's bearings and continue this engine until i can afford a V8 swap. What do you guys think?
