    Turbo shaft movement

    Hi all
    Got a greddy t518z and it has shaft play.
    I know its journal bearing so will fill with oil but is this play too much ? Its not touching the sides at any point.

    Thanks all

    Does look a bit much.

    Is there any in and out play?

    With no in and out play I'd be a but more confident in it.
