I have a 4.00 crank in a iron block 6.0 ly6 block, it is more of a road race motor than a drag style, so I like to keep the RPM higher for longer periods of time,
What is everyone doing for Bearing Clearance with the Clevitte H bearing
I was told .0015 to .0020 for rods and mains
Does that sound good or am I off base with that,

That is way way tight with a iron block.
.0025 is as tight as I would go with iron

To help it is a LY6 Iron Block,
All internals are from Texas Speed
Lunati 4.0 Voodoo Crank
Rods are Compstar H beam with ARP 2000
Weisco pistons 10.5 to one
LS92 heads nothing done just stock
and the texas speed oil pump
Really no budget just want it right spun a bearing last trip,
It is in a offroad race car,
Using a Federal .0001 to .0005 Bore gage

just tore down the bottom end, I screwed up by not line boring the bottom end, spun the same bearing, So off to the machine shop, going to put a new crank in from Lunati
not sure if even the old one is worth anything, it is a 10-Rods and the 20-Mains, the mains will have to cut to 30, so is a 10/30 worth anything on a 4.00 stroke,
