Thanks I'm sure I can google it.It’s been so long since I’ve played with a stock rod, stock crank combo I would be guessing honestly. But I know it way tighter.

Iron and steel will stick to the magnet. Bearing material won't.This is what came out of the filter. I unfolded all the pleats and used my magnet to pick up any debris. The oil also had a lot of metallic debris in it. This was on the inlet side.

The bearings are steel but the coatings are copper and zinc I believe.Iron and steel will stick to the magnet. Bearing material won't.
Yep. If your bearings are down past the copper to the steel you are screwed. LOLThe bearings are steel but the coatings are copper and zinc I believe.
Not zinc coated but a babbit material over copper.Yep. If your bearings are down past the copper to the steel you are screwed. LOL

Thats right.Iron and steel will stick to the magnet. Bearing material won't.
Thats what I haveThats right.
Bearing will show itself as bronzish metalic pearl in the oil .
like I said, it's all gone through the system and into the filter at this point, we hope and or for the most part. get yourself some full Groove main bearings and stick a magnet in the bottom of the oil pan. Like a piece of speaker magnet.Thats what I have

Every motor i do, i put a magnet in the pan.Already have that insurance
Do you place it so you can remove it or does it just stay there.Every motor i do, i put a magnet in the pan.
I have seen worse, never any good.This is what came out of the filter. I unfolded all the pleats and used my magnet to pick up any debris. The oil also had a lot of metallic debris in it. This was on the inlet side.

Thank you JohnEvery shortcut you take now will be a shortcut short lived. Way to much metal involved for a flush and this engine needs pulled, disassembled, cleaned, and rebuilt. End of story.
Yea me to, I'd love to talk Mopar with someone but my best Mopar friends are in Arizona and Long Island.I wish you lived closer. It gets lonely in my shop since my kid lost interest in working on cars and engines. All he wants to do is drive. Pathetic. He’s up watching our friends race in Virginia on tv.

I have attached one outside on the back, never comes off, and I have put them in the bottom of the sump. They do not move buddy...but work better than a magnetic drain plug if you have some failure...the magnet grabs it and it won't cycle all the trash through the oil system.Do you place it so you can remove it or does it just stay there.

Do what you can, pull it or not.
You could yank the trans and do it all in car. But way easier out of the car.
Just giving my judgment of what I can see.
I've done this on motors, 390 ford ran with no oil pump! And changed bearing in the truck on a lift and it's still going strong 8 yrs later...but I'm all about doing things right 1st time around.
Get a block brush kit, mr.gasket sells a set.
Warm water, dawn/dish soap, all plugs out and brush all the passages real good..sponge the bores...rinse clean keeping as wet as you can till you are ready for compressed air to dry it...and immediately wipe a clean cloth with wd-40 over all machined surfaces, prime an paint the rest. Another is just hit the whole thing with wd when clean and then when it's all together brake clean off what you wanna paint ...I do the first.
