thats the crux of it.
remember that NONE of your bearings should EVER have metal to metal contact. althought there may be some highspots ont he bearing surfaces, if they do touch, then the motor is too tight (imo). running in is to knock off the highpoints of the bore walls so you have a good mixture of valleys and flats.. valleys to hold oil and flats to seal to the ring (via the oil film provided by the valleys).
good luck
