Looks to tight of bearing clearance to me. Did you do it with the crank and bearing dry or oiled?

I thought so, but then agine they have some assembly lube, this is my first assembly so i have some mistakes
I used the wrong one , i should use the green plastigauge, unfortunetly i dont have it!
orderd it from summit and they sent me the wrong size
guess i should count on my luck on this one!
btw rotating assembly is in ,pistons, rods ,crank spin smoothly , cam is also in, oil pump is in
will torque the connecting rod bolts tomorow, install lifters ,heads,oil pan , and take some pics ,
hopefully, well tray to drop the motor tomorow and turn the engine
wish me luck:thumbs:
