The new bearings seem to build up a little higher, not much thread left for the upper stem nut..
The lower stem nut is much thicker than the upper, about 3 threads, so I think the solution would be to take a few threads of the lower nut to make room for the upper one.. I guess that will still be strong enough?

nothing... i'm convinced it will not be a problem as it did not before, and by someone in another topic i started on the subject telling me it's a common thing and never gives a problem.. enough said about it for me.. ;)

besides, i have my eye on another engine that has a good chance of going in.
