Default Help Crank walked

Ok I need help...
Lately my car dies when I am shifting in low rpm, mostly when I pushed the clutch...
So I tought it was a clutch or something like the fork or the throwout bearing. today I checked it and it was fine...
Somehow I notice the crank pulley is moving when a friend of mine pushed the clutch. Can it be my trust bearing is broken or something? If It did what can happen and howmuch damage could it create and how much to fixed...
Thanks guys

Yep, probably a bad thrust bearing. You'll have to tear it down to inspect the damage done. Doesn't sound good though.

maybe you should consider a re-sleeved B18A/B block instead of a B20......

..because the B18A/B are pretty much the same except the bore (sleeves). if you get a B20 then youll spend $700~$1100 on it, but a B18A/B is about $100~$600.. the money that you save on the B18A/B can be spent on *new stronger sleeves* that can be bore anywhere from 81mm to 87mm (84mm if you want the same as B20. 87mm is not as streetable)..
