Tail dragger, As Terry and others have said "crush" is imperative to make the bearings round and tight in the block. If I were you I would get a new set of bearings and start over. I think the other part number is 2020CP if I remember correctly? Sometimes a different set of bearings can make a difference. Another set of eyes might help too especially if they are "pro". My engine count is north of 500, may be even a thousand ?? And yes I have done A's for pietenpol (sp?) airplane. Rick.
