So I had to freshen my 403 and im in the assembly stage. I measured my first two rod bearing (with plasti gauge) and im getting .0015. From what I've seen in my searches it is very borderline between too tight and ok. I know plastic gauge measures a little on the tight side but i wanted to get some additional opinions before i proceed. Its a Lunati crank and rods going in a driver G8 NA in the high 400 to low 500 hp range. Ive searched the forms and not come up with an exact answer for my situation as the majority of the posts i have seen are for FI builds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
