You can buy a dial indicator with a magnetic base and use that to check runout.

Those cranks can bend if stored laying on the ground rather than standing on end, or by beating on those motors. They also can crack.

With the senior cars those problems seemed to begin showing up as Packard increased the horsepower by 1933. One reason I never beat on those motors.
