Hi John welcome to the forum! There is very helpful and knowledgable people on here as well as very experienced that will advise. That’s why I’m not going to offer my help 🤣
A good starting point is to download the manual here (unless you have done that) then see how the crank journal tollerances look in the tables. Check you bearing codes if the colours are visible.
It depends on condition of the bearing surfaces as well John, when you have 5 posts then put up a pic of them, mark each one before removal, they MUST go back in the same place they came from.
Need actual pictures of the face of the shell bearings. They can corrode due to acid in the engine oil over the years, so even though the clearance may be ok the shell could be ruined.
