Spence, you should mic the crank and send the rods off to be checked for round. Trust me, even with those kind of miles with the way your bearings look my guess would be that your rods are out of round enough to have a tight spot with new bearings... You're not helping my anxiety that I should pull the engine in my truck as well :nail: I'm not even looking forward to pulling the head for a fresh gasket before I build my twins.
My dad was fooling around with the micrometer and said they looked fine, idk about the rods though?
I started getting parts on the way today, hopefully I have enough to have it balanced too. I got some new non inter-cooled pistons with a wider bowl, the old ones are going to be experimented on by my brother in law with valve reliefs/ bowl work and such.
I wasn't looking forward to pulling my head but when it came off everything looked fine until I started to clean it up. so keep a sharp eye!!!
