I was ready to put the bottom end of the 440 together, I had the crank turned and purchased the bearings from the machine shop that was supposed to be a 10-10 crank. Well some say I'm nuts I still use plastigauge to double check the work done (don't have an outside micrometer) when I come to find the mains are loose. So I scrounge around and found a friend that loaned one to me a mic and come to find the mains are 20 under, so its back to the shop for a bearing exchange. I have the goodies for the spring relocation so I'll be dragging the car across the yard for that project shortly.

good thing you checked it Bob. Better than tearing the engine down later.
