Mark Itf in in pretty well covered it however I would add one caution on using plastigage when checking main bearing clearance, when you tighten up a main cap with the plastigage on the bearing shell the weight of the crank can give you a false reading, I always put a jack under the crank and put enough up pressure on it so it's tight against the upper shell. Good Luck!
