I was going to put a D16A1 crank in one of my browntop ZC's, but the main bearing ate up the crank journal and the block 
...so I toss that away. maybe the crank will be usefull some other time

so listening to what everybody says,if your not mechanicaly able to tear apart this block and spend all that money tring to salvage what is ruined,it would be easier to buy another block and swap them out.its a d-block there pretty much easy to get. not like its a gsr,b16 or type-r block.those are the ones u try and rebuild.
