I'm going to take your advice on the looser ring gaps. Better safe than sorry and there doesn't seem to be any performance impact. I forgot to ask about the oil ring, will drop them another email.
By mixing shells I assume you mean putting an extra clearance with a standard in the same journal? Going to avoid that if I can. As of right now, it's just the #5 journal that needs a different bearing and it's not because of the journal itself since the Clevites were uniformly all too tight. Polishing the crank to fit the Clevites is probably the right solution here.
