My first look at the internals. no spun bearings anyways. I see stampings on the rods but i think its just for orientation not numbering for position. I'll have to stamp them myself, for now, paint marker.

Mains measured 2.75, journals are 2.375. I believe they are supposed to be 2.38. That means grinding
