Otherwise, he would likely have sensor and compression issues.

If you look at his feedback you will see that he parted out another crossfire.

A few good questions would be: What caused the spun bearing and was this addressed during the repair? Were the bearings on the con rods replaced with new? How many miles on the limited? Has the car ever been in a crash, i'm thinking front end collision.
It wouldn't make any difference what caused the spun bearing. He didn't use that block or assembly, it was replaced with the NA short block.
