I'm gonna disagree, theres a number of 323 GTXs with worn keyways <they have 
the same problem> pushing 200 hp on a jb welded crank, ideally if you can get 
the car together and make it run you could have a shop weld it back up and 
then file it down, that'd be a better solution but JB weld is workable
