Default Re: Do I need extra shims on main bearings?

We did that today (without the plastigauge) and it looks like the center bearing might be the culprit. We tightened the rear and front bearing, not to 80 ft lbs, and everything was ok until we tightened the center bearing. But again, without the proper torque, I'm not 100% sure.

Yes, the connecting rods are still connected.

I attached a couple of pictures.
