You need a different adviser. The block is a 4" bore. The crank fits that block. 3932442 is a common iron 350 crank. The only thing you have to do is get the crank checked for undersize and get common bearings for it. NUTTIN SPECIAL!!

You may have the caps out of order ar a bad main bearing bore. Tighten the front and rear main caps. See If the crank turns. Then try each of the center caps. If they lock up the assembly, you have switched caps or bad main bore. If the block is dark colored around the main bearing bore or you can feel a lip on the edges of the tightened main caps in the main bore inside diameter. ou have a line bore problem
