RE: IML: Spun Bearing - in block cure?

[Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks - yes, it is a $900 car at this point, with
many other items needing attention as well, so not
deserving of the full treatment - for now.  

Add in that my car budget is pointed elsewhere and
that I mainly want the car to drive and move under
it's own power so that I can shuffle vehicles around
until I can redo the body and interior.  

I plan to go after that journal with atf and
emerycloth  in the next few days so that I can
re-assemble and reinstall.
