No, that is not the same engine picture from before. The crank shaft didn't fit right and it had to go back to the shop where they were so nice as to clean the engine for me, again. But I am getting ahead of myself.
The block needed a line bore to get things fitting right. So the grand total is .040 off the crank main journals and .020 off the rod journals, along with a .020 overbore. She is ready to go now.
With the crank torqued in place with all the new bearings and thrust washers installed there is .0045 inch of endfloat, exactly as the manual says it should. Finally I can get to work on putting this engine together!
