Most of the time, you fix it with a 6 bolt. Sorry bud, but your motor is more than likely toast.

once you spin a bearing, the crank is junk, that one rod is junk, and depending on how long you ran it the lack of oil flow and metal shavings going through the rest of it does alot of damage.

RE: spun rod bearing

yea, ussually its alot easier to just replace the block. Or replace all the internals. But its gonna take alot of time. Depending on how long you spend on it you could have it done in a couple weeks to over a month
