Hello everyone,
Has anyone had the privilege of trying to locate a crank kit for a 264 cu.in.engine for a ' 55 Buick ?I have tried NAPA,Advance,Carquest,Burns,& a host of smaller suppliers with no luck.Thanks in advance.

Good luck Iddie---you have had your fair share of troubles---hope it turns out OK------BeBop.......
Thanks bebop,
I dropped off the crankshaft and was told they can repair the seal area .They were shocked that a machine shop & engine builder would put the crank back into the block in the condition it was in.when I got the block back everthing was clean and shiny & the bearings were installed.I'll keep posting as this evolves.

Sounds like you will need another Rear Main Seal!!! Use the rubber one again.

Good morning telriv,
Thanks for responding again .Now that the crank is out,is there a special way to insure that the rubber seal is seated properly when I install it?
