Alternatively a new crank shaft with new (original) bearings is needed but we're afraid that this would be too expensive for our member.

Very appreciated for any help!

I dont quite understand this one. You need to get the crank machined and will need over size shells ( bearings ) but you say engine specialists already have oversize shells ? did i miss something
