3.191 /.192 + or - is the main housing bore diameter. You should be able to align hone and get that .005 or .006".

If you are going to do that why not just put the bearing in and measure it then Mic the crank and do it right...

x2, I would think that bearing crush in the block might have some effect to your final measurement.

Yes Rick it will affect it, but some people try to make it harder than it really is.....
