Bearing size
I am reusing a stock crank that has not been resized, just polished. Do I order a set of standard size? .001 is an option, when do you use these?

Whip out your micrometer and measure the mains, then compare against stock size...that'll tell you what oversize bearing you need. It will also tell you if the crank needs more work done on it, if you measure any significant variation.
Same for the rod bearings.

What should the two measurements be under to select the .001?
If I measure a journal at 90 degrees and one is over and the other is under, do you take the standard or .001?
