just a thought but in my shop we found the conversion to studs to hold the crank in place -- with the higher torque value used with them changes the main cap circle and causes the top and bottom of the bearing to close its oil clearance -- about a 1/2 thousand and the bearing haves egg shape -- we line hone the crank block holes with caps in place and new torque value to correct -- but a special T chain might come into play as well -- as the distance between the crank and the cam end up closer -- in the shop you use they have already done all of this but maybe not -- jz
