• Crank is installed on new bearings and torqued. Spins nice and smooth - waiting on dial indicator ordered from Summit to check end play

Did you pry the crank both back and forward and hold it in forward while torqueing the #3 main cap to set the thrust bearings?

And you don't need a dial indicator to check end play, you can use feeler gauges at the thrust bearing.
