thanks for that, i went ahead and checked it anyway and it was right around .002" on each journal. endplay was .005".
now i just need to call CHP and doublecheck the torque spec on the main caps. i checked clearances using the stock spec ( approx. 105 ft. lb.) i'm using the 'street fighter' mains girdle as well, checked with it in place. i just painted the block today, it turned out beautifully with very little overspray. i'll get some pics up here if at all possible.
