Doing the top end....or the bottom end...or both?
Regardless, if we are talking crankshaft? Run the test with the plastic-gauge stuff....give it a shot with the stock sized bearings. Unless something 'spun' or the crank has been machined before? Stock should be within range. (if not? Time to talk with a machine shop/engine rebuild shop...might need to have the crank machined and bearings matched)
