Can anyone give me the standard diameter for the Mains and rod journals on a 360 crank?

My book info suggests 2.81" for the mains but nowt for rod journals.
Urgent help required as crank is being re-ground and I want to (finally) build this engine up.
thanks

OK I found the journal diams (2.81 and 2.125"), can anyone tell me the factory tolerances for these suggested radiuses?

C'mon guys! I really need this info, the machine shop won't grind my crank 'till they know the tolerances involved

According to my book you need 0.002 to 0.003 inch of clearance on the mains and 0.0025 - 0.0035 on the rod throws. So select your bearings and adjust to that.
