Anyone have a pill?

Is there a pill you can take for CantgetenoughSVXi-pnuemonia ?
I found a 92 SVX "parts car" listed on the local Craigslist the other day, and I just had to see what I could use off of it for mine. The guy said it was a complete car, with a good transmission, but a "bad" crank.
Car turns out to be a very clean Pearlie that the crank pulley came loose on. The pulley is toast, but the crank looks to be perfectly fine. Are the cranks that much harder material than the the pulley?
Guy says "give me $500 and take the whole thing", so... I do it!
The car is at least as clean as my original one, so now i seem to have TWO SXVi! My wife said fine, keep it, now we have his and hers' !

You are lucky the tires are mounted correctly--now is shouldn't be much of a problem to get every thing mounted right.
