360 crank knurling?
Anybody hear of a small block not having the crank knurled at the rear main seal?
I have a virgin crate motor ( P4876908 ) I have had for over 15 years and I decided to tear down and inspect before assembly and install.
Mic shows the crank is standard size ( not turned ).Upon removing the main caps I noticed the crank has no knurling at the seal. I have never seen a small block without knurling, This seems to me It would leak without the knurling and not forcing the oil back into the crankcase.
Any thoughts?
