Very true, my street thrasher has zero oiling mods, just very good machine work and all bearings at .003, I just checked a vid and with a rolling burnout and letting it run out I was over 7k for 22 seconds straight and when I replaced the bearings that had five seasons on them I should of saved them for a beater motor.
Maybe with a high end crank and a rigid race block id tempt fate and run .002 but with our old motors .003 and good machine work has been the norm for a reason.
thanks we had 0015 to 2.0 on last motor that was all brand new but block and heads running 11.86 112 mph
Tighter than I like to go but that's up to you. Better big than small is all I will say. My Sons .030 over 360 run 10.50's in his 3150 pound Duster with NOTHING but a high volume oil pump shifting at 6400 rpm.
My engines build are cleaner than my house. (I hate house cleaning) but spend hours cleaning a block and deburring before a build.
