LOL, tell my wife that....
Shooting for .002
I might just throw a little bit of nitrous on the engine so I wanted it bigger. Plus my scr is right at 10:1 and I plan on towing so the piston to cylinder wall clearance is at the max of what wiseco says to run. I also gapped number 7 .001 bigger. lol

I actually run about .0023-.0025 on the rods and sometimes the mains. You have an iron block, it wont grow like aliminum. Run a better oil pump and now you can run thicker oil in it too to help with abuse. My motors held all this time like this. More room for error. And once you add nitrous, watch out, big time hit on the rod bearings.

I have a melling high volume pump for the engine..
I also upgraded the wrist pins to a tapper wall. Brian nutter from wiseco said they would be over kill for the hp I'm shooting for, even when/ if I spray it.
gapping rings

wraped up and wait for more free time....

I hope your not running the TTY main bolts. My mains were walking the walk with the TTY's.
