Not worth fooling with a used one. It should probably be magnafluxed and resized and by the time you do that the new ones from GM end up about the same price. Pretty sure the part number is 19170198 Summit has them in stock for $138

thank you. I looked up that part number and it is a big block chevy rod but doesnt look like its a “dimple rod”. Mine have a little bump towards the too which i found out means its a dimple rod. Is that going to matter? Using one disfferent rod?
