Crankshaft question
I just got my crank bask from being polished. It looked fine when I took it in and the guy who polished it said he didn't mic it; he just cleaned it up. The specs call for 3" on the mains and 2.4988-2.4998 on the rods. I checked all the journals with my dial indicator and here's what i got:
Mains: Rods:
1) 2.998 1) 2.4982
2) 2.998 2) 2.4992
3) 2.996 3) 2.4980
4) 2.995 4) 2.4980
5) 2.996
What do you think? Is this too far out of tolerance to use standard bearings?
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
