Shimming bearings is not a fast easy thing. It will take time and fitting of parts to come out right. You need to have the proper amount of "crush" That is, with the bearing shells in place, shims in place but bolts not more than finger tight, you need to be able to insert the proper feeler gauge into the gap between the bearing cap and block or rod. If with the proper cursh you still have too much bearing clearance (plasti gauge it to see) well now you neeed to carefully and evenly file the bearing shell and reduce the shim thickness by the same amount to maintain the proper crush. It takes time. Look in your manual for the proper cursh. Have you done this? With the proper clearance bearings can seem to grab or have seized up if you don't turn the crank for a while, but when you break it free it should rotate freely and start again after you let it stop for only a few seconds or a couple of minutes.
