Icon3 BENT CRANK PULLEY

I have a year old almost D15b Sohc Vtec motor. everything runs fine on it but one day i noticed a noise wasnt sure what it was cause it started off quiet but no its very loud. i can see my crank pulley wobbling (dancing) back and fourth. Had a tech from "CNC RACING" here in Las Vegas and he told me i had a bent crankshaft and crank pulley and it would be better off just replacing the motor with a new one. well still havent done that but i had a guy i ran into that has alot to do with honda and he said it could possibly just be the pulley itself.

i was just wondering if anyone could help me out before i go out and purchase a motor when i could have done something in a cheaper route.

please and thank you!!

Replace the crank pulley, we have replaced at least a couple on Honda/Acura cars, all have been just bent pulleys and not bent cranks. 94
