I appreciate the opinion, Justin.  I spun another bearing at the end of this 
season, and am not sure what is causing it.  I recently added an accusump, 
which should help rather than hurt.  Kas's book says to have 0.011" taken off 
of the crank rather than 0.010".  I assume that he is subtracting 0.011" from 
the upper specified value.  Maybe I can find another machine shop that can 
better polish the standard dimensions for clearance, and that I better find 
more time for taking my own micrometer readings.

Maybe I also should take out the shroud that I added to the oil pan.  It is 
hard to tell what exact effect these added innovations have.
