Default Oem Rod bearings

Hello folks.
I am on the last part of my build and could really, really use your brains. I need help in finding the correct rod bearings.
Machine shop stated to get standard size. (Yeaahh)

The end of the crank reads "CCCCC" and my buddy measured it at "1.887mm outer diameter"
This is a boosted street car.

Could you folks help me, please.

Thank you for help!

You need the size of both the crank pins and the rod ends, then there is a lookup table in the factory service manual to determine what "color" bearing you need (color is how they discern thickness). CCCCC isn't the rod pins though, it is the main bearings (there aren't 5 rods, after all).

Also, if any work was done to the crank (i.e. spun bearing & the pin was sanded & polished afterward) then the measurement mark on the crank is no longer relevant, and you will need to plastigauge to be sure you have the correct bearing thickness.

It is also good practice to plastigauge all of them anyway, to be certain the clearance is correct.

Thank you for the great reply.
Sorry, my fault. I added an extra "C". And yes the crank was polished.

Would you happen to have access to the chart that's online base? Car is at the shop and that's where my book is at. (2006 ap2. Google providing all kinds charts that aren't relevant)

Just Google the s2000 factory service manual. There are fee pdf's out there to download. On my phone or I'd dig up a link.

Update:

So I found the that Honda offers the manual on their website. Unfortunately, the updated service manual doesn't include stated chart. I called Honda, and they confirmed that I must go pick up a printed chart. (Why I wasn't told over the phone the color needed, idk) I will update as I get information seeing as how the interwebs seem to be lacking a lot of this information.

Thank you for the help so far.
