Restart the rebuild

Thanks, I noticed a few other "pieces of interest". I think it's a cleanliness issue. I ordered 2 more bearings CB-481 P-20 locally, should be here in the morning. I'll plasti gauge the new ones. Can plastigauge get "old"? I've heard older stuff might not "read" correctly?

I'm a certified weld inspector and that pit, although it is not a weld, reminds me of a slag inclusion in a stick weld. I wonder if it isn't just some casting slag that happened to be right there and got exposed when it was machined because there isn't a gouge leading up to it?
