Need a little help. So, I have cleaned the engine and about to start assembly when I realized my Rods are too wide to fit on the crankshaft... Tag on the crankshaft says journals are 2.577 which is the correct bearing size, but the bearing surface is roughly 2.04 wide, and the rod width is just shy of 2.25. So, my question is what width should I mill these rods too? Does anyone know how much clearance I should give between the rod and crank? I'm thinking around .010 on each side should be sufficient but wanted to see if anyone has had experience with these larger cranks.
Thanks all,
