This was hot engine vs hot. Got me some plastigage and got to measure a few journals. The middle one showed 002 and the front one less than that. So i think clearances have been tight. I think it should be more like 0025 with new bearings. Will see what i find at the rod journals. I asked at the speed shop for 001 under bearings, but he didn`t have any listed on the 0.02 under size. Are there any available or is a trip to the crank grinder my only option to gain more clearance?
I also bought ARP main bolts, but they don`t have the provision for a windage tray. What`s my options on that one?
And thanks for the help. I really appreciate it!
