mains = 60-70 lb ft
rods = 19-24 lb ft

Main bearing journal diameter = 2.2490-2.2482
Out-of-round limit = 0.0006 MAX
Taper limit (Per inch) = 0.0004 MAX
Journal Runout limit = 0.002
Surface finish (RMS) = 12 MAX
Runout service limit = 0.005

Connecting rod journal diameter = 2.1228-2.1236
Out-of-round limit = 0.0006
Taper limit = 0.0006 Per inch MAX
Surface finish (RMS) = 12 MAX

This is word for word out of my 1989 Ford Mustang shop manual from Ford. Hope this helps.
