We have had some blocks where the cam bearings were amazingly off from the factory in every possible direction. Had one (with signs of at least three apparent rebuilds...) where there was literally zero oil to the rear main - missing a drilling. Had one where the rear cam tunnel bore was .020" off from the others - NOT .002" - .020" out of position!
One thing I have decided (without documentation...) is that Ford must have used a single mandrel to install all five bearings at the same time, and used a semi-finished bearing with an undersized inside diameter. Once the bearings were installed they must have broached the I.D. to the target dimension in a single subsequent operation. It's literally the only way that these engines could have been built and run given the location variances we see. The one without rear main oil probably failed on every owner and got tossed into a core pile waiting for the next victim...
We have a test cam for use in every block. it is a core that was verified straight and with journal diameters to spec. Willy removed all the lobes on the lathe so we don't mark up the bearings during test fitting. It's common for a cam bearing to need an occasional tweak to get a nice smooth fit, but once in a while we find an epic problem that needs fixing. We usually end up using the larger O.D. bearing from the aftermarket block cam set (Durabond FP-01) as a repair part for the back four housing bores as needed.
