Crankshaft wear experiences

Have been measuring my crank (3.9 38D disco2 engine), and am a bit mystified by the results. Engine came to me cheaply, no accessories, but almost complete injection set up. Have almost new Mitutoyo mikes in 1-2" (in mm) and 2-3". Have run these twice now, consistent results. Have polished the journals with 800-1200-1500 grit wet-n-dry paper. The mains all come up dead on 2.30", measured in 2 planes. The big ends are all between 50.80 and 50.815mm(this is 2.0005"). There were visible scratches on No1 big end shell, but the marks on the journal polished out easily.
Is this unusual?
thanks
