This is my second thread for my Honda Accord (F22A1) since I’ve moved on from the problems on the first one. I’ve learned I spun a bearing in the block, I’ve determined the sound I mentioned was the bearing breaking and the horrible noise was the spun rod. I can rock the rod back and forth from underneath. I’ve asked several of my friends and it’s mixed on either to fix it or get a new block. So my question is, is it worth buying new bearings and installing them while the engine is still in the car, or to go to a pick n pull and get a block and use my new head on it? It’s only one rod that I can move with my hand, the rest seem to be pretty sturdy but if I was to replace the one I would do them all obviously.

Thank you, I’m looking for one in my local yard, I’m told I just need a F series block since my F22A1 head will fit on any, is this correct?
