Crank end play, thrust bearing gap

Crank end play, thrust bearing gap
Hey guys, I'm assembling my forged motor. I noticed my thrust washer and crank surface have a visible gap between the two. I measured the end play and it's at .009
My machinist tells me tolerance is .002 to .011
I can move the crank forward and backward my hand and this has me nervous. I've never put together a motor with crank walk in brand new form... seems crazy to me.
Press forward? Or is there a solution such as thicket thrust bearings? I have only seen one part number available.
Thanks
