You Need to measure the crank journals first.
The journals should be stock diameter, which means you need stock size bearings.
Oversize bearings will Not fit a stock crank, as the oversize bearings are thicker to compensate for the worn material the lathe cut off the crank...which would then require thicker bearings.
You only need oversize bearings if the crank journals are worn and have been/need to be machined/turned to a smaller I.D to smooth the journal surfaces.
