It sounds also possible you have bearings for a crank that has been turned,
say .010,maybe .020, but you have a standard crank.

Are you sure you have the main caps on the correct way and not
backwards. That's the fastest way to bind up the crank.
Also do you check your main bearing clearances with plasti-gauge?
Did you have the crank turned??
I have been building engines for years and I always start with the
mains. Make sure you can turn the crank with your hand then proceed to
the rods.
