Jack, don't do it. .007 is way too tight. The side
clearance is to let the hot oil out of the rod.
Too tight and you will quickly overheat the bearing.
If the bearings are not limiting the clearance
you may have to have addition clearance ground on the sides of the rods to get the proper specs.
Don't wimp out now and do a half a$$ job of it.
