Looks good to me

The crank journals look pretty good , should polish up nicely. I would bet that new std size bearings will work. I am still a fan of plastigaging the journals , it is an easy thing to do and as has been pointed out the average guy is usually not skilled enough to get reliable readings from the crank journals and inside mic the bearings. By all means get the bottom end checked by a machine shop. The bottom ends of the rods should be checked for size as well since they can become deformed. Cheers Dan
