Well, after removing the shattered bearing, I measured the ID of the pilot bearing bore in the crank. I'm reading 1.358" with a set of dial calipers. The OD of the damaged bearing that I ordered is 1.378". I got a 2nd pilot bearing locally and it also measures 1.358" OD. 0.020" is too tight of a press fit. I would think .002" would be ideal. Do I flapper wheel the crank bore or do I flapper the bearing OD? What have others done? I'd like to know.
