How do you plan checking bearing clearences? As my previous post says, if a rod bearing spun then that rod is no good. It will also damage the rod journal on the crankshaft. If a main bearing spun, then the crank is trashed and the block will need to be machined then fitted for thicker main bearings. Throwing new bearing at a damaged rotating assembly will solve nothing and would definately be half assed. That motor has to come out of the car. Besides, I don't think you gonna be able get the main bearings out without removing the crank.
