Hi John- It's a 99 block. I actually did a feeler gauge test on all the journals and the thrust bearings and it's perfectly in spec and I rest comfortably with that.

Since no machining was done on the rod journals, no checking was done. I just put a new set of ACL Aluglide STD size rod bearings in.

The only machining that was was the main bearing journals on the crank (.010"). I did install the main bearings and clamped the girdle down without the crank in it and he checked everything with an inside micrometer and everything was perfectly in spec as far as the crank goes.
