i have orderd 2 set from 2 diffrent places and they dont fit at all please help me thank you
they replyed this

MS2058AL FITS YOUR ENGINE. Housing bore is 2.6356-2.6367. Crank diameter is 2.4382-2.4392. your housing bore measurement is off .002, I'd double check the measurement. if it checks out, it needs a line-hone. Order thrust washer set TW552S as well to complete the job.Bearing shells 1,2,3 are the same, shell 4 is wider.

so i dont know why i would make the hole bigger because it .002 bigger already lol

so i dont know what to do, maybe thats why so many people have been spining bearings after rebuilds
do you guys know any company the do custom bearings
thanks claude

i told my machine shop what clevite said to line hon and thats when i found out that
they lower the deck s and then re bore the holes so that probly what ill do .

i only got a few pull under boost before i spun my bearing on 2 rod any one else have this kind of clearance issues
