I’m replacing the crank/bearings in this 372 (only second time doing a bottom end) and I’m not able to get this crank to center up. I set both bearings in halfs all the way in, the clutch side set in the half a decent amount but I have red this is correct. Headed halves up, slipped crank in and they liked about a half inch meeting up, put the crank bolts in and slowly evenly tightened them and brought it together, it spun somewhat free but rubbed flywheel side, and I’ve tried tapping as much as I’m comfortable with and it won’t move and now it’s even harder to turn. Any help I’d appreciated
