Hahahaha "no one will ever know what you are talking about". That's some funny stuff right there...

Ok here is my outline of next steps, then, please let me know if you have any corrections to this plan

1. remove the oil pump
2. open up the 1st bearing, inspect, plastigauge it (find who sells plastigauge)
3. remove the head
