Well i am not going to trash it.Its not going to do any work.Squirt of oil on the top,heat gun down the intake,spin it over,chug chug yippee.Then put it in a corner of the shed and fondle it occasionally.Dont know about the conrod.All apears to be ok after i straitened it but cant be sure for certain which is why i changed it,and most definetly would not give to anyone else.Crankshaft i do not know about.Had a bitch of a job getting the flywheel and pulley off.Crankshaft is out of the engine with a flywheel still attached.Main bearings seem to be ok.Yes the case would be a good foundation for an oid, well at least it would give them a fighting chance
