Bearings for Turbo 383 Motor
Hi,
I have a LM7 Block this is currently being bored out to accept Ls1 Size Wiesco Pistons along with a 4" Eagle Crank. This will also be turbo'd with 2 X on3 70mm's.
After searching for bearing clearances I find the most used are:-
Mains .0023 - .0025
Rods .0025 - .0027
I plan on using Clevite H Series bearings.
If I buy a set of standard size bearings and plastigauge them and they are not in this range do I need another set is this my only option?? Or shall I buy a different size to start with that might get me within this range? Have no idea what the standard range is.
I dont want to but multiple sets if I dont have too.
Thanks
Neal
