I am assembling my small block stroker and measured the connecting Rod side clearance. The spec seems to be .009 to .017. Two are .014 the other two are .024, is this OK. Not sure what to do, should I try mixing up the rods? The crank is a MP stroker and the rods are Eagle H beams. All bought in 2001 so its too late to return anything. If swapping the rods around does not work im not sure what can be done to correct it.
