I had all my stuff digitally photographed, but the hard drive they were on crashed abruptly and I lost everything. Very sad true story. I should have just used a notebook and kept it simple.

just put 'em in & take some measurements! 
ohh & double check everything with plasti-gauge as a second refereance point. It will be nice to compaire your measurements with your tools to the plasti-gauge measurements. I'll be excited to see how close they are.

Well after measuring everything up i had to tear the block down again so that i can get the mains line honed.
Here are the measurements Crank 1) .1906 2) .1906 3) .1894 4) .1907 5) .1907 Block 1) .1914 2) .1911 3) .1924 4) .1921 5) .1928 Which yeild these clearences 1) .0008 2) .0005 3) .0030 4) .0014 5) .0021
Once i get the block back i will measure the mains and figure out what bearings i need to get. One of these day the motor will be in and running.

If you haven't already, you might wanna check into having the crank checked and balanced while u have everything apart.
