Wow, I had to go back and a long ways but I still had the email from Aircraft International where I sent the engine in for inspection.

Dear **********,
We received your 3W-75i-CS (Competition) engine for inspection.
A careful review revealed following problems:
Crankshaft is bent (needs to be replaced)
Run out at base of hub 1.9/1,000”
Run out at front of hub 5.8/1,000” (should not exceed 1.2/1,000”)
When you turn the crankshaft over you can see with your bare eye
the gap between hub and crankcase widening and narrowing.
You should not be able to see any changes there.
