If the crank was turned and the trust surface was also ground most likely the surface is to rough.. Ask me how I know. went thru 3 cranks and bearings on a 360 until I figured it out and took the last crank to a different machine shop that knew what the surface finish should be. No more problems sence.

the next time you put a reground crank in check the center main for run out 1 out of 5 cranks are bent (steel) I run into it all the time they should be straighten before grinding! the one you have looks like it was bent when you put it in.

Yea it does.
I also agree on the little ring in the bottom of the crank register.
(Looks like it was pushing the crank forward)
Just for kicks I'd take about 1/4 in. off the end of that input shaft, but only if the pilot bearing rides far back on the shaft to allow it.
