84463, Wall clearance and other stuff
Posted by TXTurboGS, Mar-30-05 04:56 PM
I am rebuilding my engine and I purchased some Weiseco .040 over pistons. So I am boring the bloc, but I need to know how tight the piston must fit, wall clearance that is. Also, I am using Crower rods, what kind of bearings should I use with them? Any other pertinent info is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I thought the spec sheets came with the pistons? That would say what your bore should be though.

yea, they are right.

And AFTER the motor is bored you should get a spec sheet of everything they did to it and the tolerances.

Use Clevite bearings for the crank and the rods imo.

Why do you say that Grain? LOL. The machine shop wanted to make sure those were the correct specs. It mad eme doubt so that is why I asked. Thanks
