I've read everything, thanks. I don't disagree with any of it, just looking for explanations. The crank has standard bearings, so I doubt if it has been ground at all. The bearings look pretty well scored in places, crank does not look bad, grinding will take care of that. It and the block are going to the machine shop. Block and head hot-tanked and checked for cracks. Going to let machinist install sleeves and cam bearings, and either order or tell me what crank bearings I need. Then I will do the rest, as he doesn't do the final assembly, I don't like paying labor anyway. The camshaft needs to be replaced, according to my measurements, I will ask the machinist to verify that. Compression low on all cylinders, wet test indicates rings, two cylinders are considerably lower than the other four. All this on a supposedly good running engine. But, I'm not putting old parts back in, after going this far.
