Turboglide cranks had a slightly larger pilot hole in the crank then all the others. When I was younger I built a 57 283 up that had a turboglide crank and a stock pilot bearing was too small for the hole in the crank. I had to have one made that fit. The crank later broke in half at 7000, maybe a weaker crank maybe just blew up.
