I don't think I'm brave enough to run that little amount of rod bearing to crankshaft clearances even with aluminum rods cold shock I like and use the old rule of .0010 for each one inch of rod journal diameter up
In other words I would shoot for a minimum of .0024 for stock Mopar rod journal size of 2.375 and .0022 on BB Chevy rod journals. I have and like to use .0030 + oil clearances on my race motors with steel rods on either journal size with no problems at all, .0035+ on the mains realcrazy whistling AKA aside, when it comes to high RPM drag race motor looser on the bearing clearances is far better than a tiny bit to tight shruggy
