"Rule of thumb", .001" of clearance for every 1" of journal (mains). For rods, we've found the Pontiuac to "like" .003. They live. What else can I say?

We "mock up" the main tunnel and measure it. If "round and straight", not a problem. We've seen VERY few blocks needing align-honing after stud installation. Pontiacs are a little "better done" than Chevys. It's "standard procedure" to do this to a Chevy.

Sarge,

Where did you buy that crank? I've only had three of the forgings through here, but all were dead-on size. Have another on order. We buy them from a reputable warehouse that sells the entire Eagle "line". It may not matter, "where", but it does with some Edelbrock stuff, so it's worth the question.

Jim

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
