Getting ready to have my crank offset ground. What is the maximum allowable side clearance? Crank will be ground to 1.85" journal, 3.6" stroke. I have a set of Carrillo rods with a big end width of .890". Im assuming that if you add the width of two rods together it gives you 1.78". With the crank journal width being 1.81" and subtracting the big end width of the rods that leaves me with .030". Is that too much side clearance? Also, what rod bearings are used with these rods? My research has led me to Clevite CB-1780H STD bearings. Thanks for the Help!
