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

Even with the wood wedged between the flex plate and stand, still needed a snipe and a backup person on the engine stand handle

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.
