Need advice on 1st engine build - cam bearing damage

That’s what happens when the oil pressure gets low and it starts to grab the bearing. You can see in your pictures where the cam has been grabbing the bearings.

I’d also measure the main bores and the Rod bores. They need to be round and to size.

Ok, that makes sense. And yeah, I was thinking I should probably buy a bore gauge, so I guess I'll go ahead and get one of those too. Summit has this one that seems decent
