Well a small project turned into a whole lot more. What was suppose to be a simple refresh of a galant turned into a bigger project than I expected. The cars going to get a whole lot of much needed TLC after having over 200k miles on the body! I'm exited for this build! make sure to like and follow!!

You're doing the right thing getting in front of it. My Elantra's crankcase, not the coolant system, was full of rust when it was left in my driveway with the keys & title in it. The block had sat in a field under a collapsed pole barn for 4 years before it got drug out with a tractor, hosed off, wire brushed, and put back together again (with the waterlogged bearings that were never even removed from it). It made it about 6k hard miles before it blew up and then I got the luxury of rebuilding it the right way. Some argue I shouldn't have, but the car is just too much fun when it works. I couldn't help it?
You can probably save the block, but I don't know about the crank? I've got a brand new 6-bolt Eagle crank you can have if you think it will fix your problem. I measured it in one of my videos where you see like 4-5 crankshafts on the bench in the thumbnail. I didn't use it. I don't need it.
