You need to rebuild the engine with a new crank. If you know why it might have walked, avoid doing the same mistake, if you do not know, get a new crank AND block, just to be sure...

If you have a heavy clutch, highly advise disabling the clutch switch. Pressure on the crank from having to push in the clutch on these is never good on the bearings. I wonder if there is a way to adapt the pull clutches to these, like on the EVO's, hmmmmm.

Dan, not clear from your post exactly what is needed, but I am south of you in Howell. I have assembled a few engines in my time.

This ^^^^^ but Mr Iceman I'm sure has the problem under control. Hopefully you don't need a crank
