You could always bring it into a machine shop that works on blocks/heads to see if they could turn it. My spun bearing 4G94 out of my Lancer OZ Rally was fixable, and that was BAD.

I'm aware, the crank has grooves in it.

This is far worse, but yet miraculously repairable according to my local block guy.

damn lol I guess it could be.

I searched for few days but haven't found anything about the bearing surface damage that's why I asked here

its becoming harder to search with more and more bullshit results on google and other search engines

what my machinist said is that a lot of them could be fixed but its not the same after its been done. he prefers not to grind it only polish

Maybe it failed due to oil starvation or improper torque but by the picture it looks repairable i think it would polish out but bring it to the machinist hell know for sure

I've had a crank that looked kind of like that. I couldn't feel any imperfections with a finger nail though. Can any be felt on this one?
