Iron block rod bearing clearance

What should it be within?

Also .. will the mains be good with .0025?

Keep in mind, this is an iron block.

General rule of thumb, .001" for every 1" of bore diameter.
So for a 2.100" housing bore, .0021" should be OK.
Also, .0025" should be good for the main bearing clearance.
