AS i was putting the crakecase backtogether i measured the free play just to be sure everything was ok, but my dad noticed the thread on the crank for the pulley is badly damaged looks like it has been attacked with a hammer who knows how i missed it it never looked right but i didn't think about it just looked a wee bit rusty so this could mean a new crank or a new engine

I have a stripped down 350 engine if the parts you need are interchangeable. I think you've (via Pete) had the gears already. Post a photo of the part you need and I'll see what's there.

Already used your gear to replace my bad shafts

Is the area of the crank where the pulley sits in good condition? Sometimes the nut can come loose and let the pulley rattle around on the crank and thread. If the pulley area is ok try and get the thread recut maybe slightly smaller.
