Need to get cranky. Actual LBC content

Spridgiteers,
Just starting to rebuild a 1275 for FROG AYE.  My machinist tells me that
the crank is not useable as there is too much thrust at the big ends.  (I
measured about 17-19 thou when I disassembled it) The journals are ok, I
think.  Anyone out there got a near standard 1275 crank they wouldn't object
to parting with for a reasonable sum?
If I had a spare $2K, I could get a billet crank out of EN40.  But, "We
tight."
