I have an 8 bolt cobra crank that I have had for several years stored. Pulled it out to make sure it was ok after storage and found something that seems odd. The crank has been run, you can see that on the bearing journals, but measurements are unusual. The main bearings are stock 03 Cobra size, 2.658 measured, but the rod bearing journals have been turned to the 4.6 2 valve size, 2.086. Trying to figure this out... Maybe was damaged and turned down to the 2V size to salvage the crank? Or maybe a machine shop error? It appears to have been re-balanced as well.
Anyone have any thoughts? Or comments?
