It was common practice to adjust the rod bearings so that you could tap it back and forth on the journal with a very light tap with a 8 oz ball pein hammer. But that it would not move easily by hand. I think the 001 to 003 measured with plastigage for the mains would be OK. But if you can acheive 001 to 002 would be better. These are my opinions I'm sure others will respond with there opinions.
