HELP !! Crankshaft End Play

[QuikyX]

Hey,
I just got done doing my trial assembly of my 6 bolt It had .07 of end play with New bearings and everything, the question is will my car be able to make any power for a while with this kind of end play its also awd and im running a used ACT 2600. Do any bearing companys make a larger flanged thrust bearing?
Thanks for all your help

That's quite a bit of play. What bearings did you get...stock race?

Yeah I got some std Clevite 77s for it, So what doyou think?

0.009 is max, so 0.07

Is the crank new...used...reconditioned?? I'd try doing a reassemble. It will prob be the same but worth a shot.

Set the thrust bearing, torque the bolts, put it all back together and drive. Only a lack of oil or the crankwalk gods can stop you now.

Yea, I wouldn't worry too much. Just make sure that they oil is flowing and the pressure is normal. But just to be safe I'd reassemble and make sure the play is the same.
You should be fine though.
