double check the thrust washers are located correctly and are the right way round on the third main bearing inside. I would yank it all out and begin again...start by locating the crank with it's thrust washers first...hand tighten no3 main bearing shell...check for rotation. Torque to 1/2 spec, check for rotation...fit caps 1 and 5 the same way to half spec...check for rotation. If OK...fit caps 2 and 4 etc...once all OK, start final torque down of the main bearing caps checking for ANY tightness in roation along the way....then move on to the pistons/con rods. Oh...and preoil all those bearing caps with assembly lube also...important!!!
Good Luck
