On my B20 i replaced the crank with a reman unit it came with oversized bearings. Problem is i want to know how how they knew which roman numerals are stamped on my block and on my rods? I never told them so i need the number of a reputable machine shop right?

man your best bet is to get a good ls or b20 crank (stock) and start with that. Those aftermarket bearings are shit. Stay with stock Honda. you could try specing a bearing set off the rod block and crank ids like stated before. Plastigauge and replace bearings that are out of spec but I think that would cost more than if you just picked up a good crank for $75-100 and ordered all new bearings off that.

... to explain a little further my block being an 88 casting has roman numerals instead of letters corresponding to the size of the holes that the main caps make with the block. Mine has two different sizes between the 5 caps 3 of one 2 of the other. the crank came with at least some of the pads that are usualy marked blank and the main bearings are all .025 oversized.
