Anyone want to help with rod bearings??

[whiteman_01]

Well, i would like to do the rod bearings in the '94. I have never done them before and to be honest, it looks pretty intimidating. Just wondering if anyone would be willing to lend a hand.

The car is a '94 atx, and i beleive i heard a real light tap of a rod the other day, so i parked it. The car has 146,000 on it and i know they have never been done. I know the motor has new head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, plug seals, plugs, and wires. I have been debating weather to pull the motor and swap it into my '92, or just drive both and keep miles off my truck.
