Damn, horrible luck. But I'm sure you'll be up and running.

Is it possible that you damaged the crank with the torque converter incident?

No, that was only with my 5.3. I put the converter on my 408 without any trouble.

I talked to the shop that built the engine and they seem to think a rod bearing is more likely than a crank or cam given how the engine is running.
