Yes, I read that. It was on rod bearings. The OEM was my next step. It seems a bit of bearing crush is good. Oh, just recalled that thread, part of the other thread was about bearing thickness taper as measured about the curve of the bearing. In that was the explanation about bearing crush. When the bearing is installed the opening around the main journal was round, whereas before the crush it was oval or racetrack shaped. The bearing crush forced the oval to round.
My original concern was what seemed like two much height above the case. It’s a pretty small bearing and a whole bunch of material to crush upon closure of the case halves.
I think i’ll remeasure now that the end play is set.
