eekvonzipper, You need to read post#17. I thought the same thing, and didn't understand why the FSM (factory shop manual) said to divide the runout by two. The total runout spec is .008. That means .004 plus .004 max. the runout is not measured from the centerline of the crank but the total variance of movement, left to right, as the crank is turned 360 degrees. My bellhousing is out .017 total, exceeding the .008 by more than double.
