So, I got my block and all the components back from the machine shop and went to start the reassembly, and immediately ran into a problem...the #3 main bearing (center, thrust) seems to be too wide?

The crank won't even sit down onto the bearing. I had it turned .020 on the mains and rods, but unless the machine shop was supposed to machine the same amount of thrust off of the crank face, then I'm at a loss?

Any ideas?
