    well thats old new s for me as every crank i hand fit use to using std and spilting then with 001 or a x .you must under stand that theres alot more to this then crank size . there housing bore size and . bearing as they are not to a STD size i have check clevitte .kings .speed pros. ACL s and you can set diffrent oil clearance just with the maker of the bearing and from a p bearing to a H .speed talks is ok but some guy got on there crying about a wash it drop it in with std bearings and it did not happen so the scat crank is bad ?i have hand fitted 1600. dollar cranks the same way i split bearing s all the time .thats is why i try to stick with one brand of bearing maker so i know what i going to needed for bearings .but first thing i do is wash the crank and mic it before you balance it and if not happy send it back . i have sent scats/PBM back before .but out of the 5O+ of the china cranks there over all is the best .as for a 350 having 003 on rods and mains thats the big end of spec and i seen that size with a full size crank small spec on all housing bores many times that were i go in and ajust size.were the bearings were STD but under some other spec on the bearing shell . and seen new race bearing stamp wrong and one under size by 0005 thats why every ring and every bearing get check in the housing bore . at the end of the day your building this . my 548 blower engine has a scat crank in it .my 14.8 548 had a scat in it . two other blower engines have a scat in them . a turbo 540 i built has a scat in it .a 8.50 drag car has one and a496 in a pull truck has one and about 20+ more that i done or sold cranks for just with scats
