I'm not usually this anal, but I think you have to force yourself to become "one with the sphincter" (that's engine zen-talk) or at least very thorough considering the cost of engine parts and potentially wasted time.

I think thats why I first suggested measuring the big end ID with the bearing installed, it includes everything, including proper crush, and leaves nothing to chance.
On the other hand, knowing the crank journals were measured and that they are not to tight, and looking at the box and its dimension, leaves only a very minute chance anything would be wrong. Personally I would have measured EVERYTHING twice, and checked it with plastiguage too. I would not have assembled the case without knowing the answers. On the other hand if I were to come across a pre assembled case, knowing the same set of facts, I might well have done what I said in the second suggesiton and let it go as chances of a problem would be almost zero.
