I just spent 70 bucks at a local shop to turn down all the mains .010 and the rod journals .020......another 40 bucks got me all new bearings sized to fit. I have a good shop here in town (Muskegon, MI), and I plan to stick with them. Plastigauging the mains and rods gave me a .0015 reading for oil clearance on all journals....not too shabby I think. Hope that helps!

about $75 buks to pull dowels, mill cap and align bore ... but you'll need to check balance against the other 3 rods. if the rod is black, dont even bother. what kind of rods btw ? I prolly have extras if its eagle

Maybe it's just me, but the #4 and #5 main journals don't look too good either. I've thrown away better stuff than that.
