Spun Rod Bearing

Other than buying a new 3.2 crankshaft what are my options ? Rod journal and rod are spun approx. 20 thou.

I'd send it out, welded up, polished, center drilled for oil to the center rods, balanced and hardened.
You can weigh the rod with everything but the bearing and call a dismantle r for a match weight or buy a full matched set here for a couple hundred.

Buy a good std/std crank and cross-drill it. Rods are not hard to find. Save the core crank for when we can't find one anymore.

Perfect advice. Make certain you modify the #4 center main oiling hole in the case and bearing journals to suit if the engine will see 7K RPM or more.

Do not forget to thoroughly clean the entire oiling system otherwise this will happen again.
