I am building my own engine and have a question that I can not find the answer to on the searches that I have done. When putting in a stroker crankshaft one of the connecting rods comes very close to hitting a camshaft lobe. What is the recommended clearance between these two parts? I know that they will expand slightly when the engine warms up and currently we only have .006" between them. I am concerned that this is not enough clearance.
Thanks for all the help you guys provide. |

Had a motor that had a shinny spot on a cam lobe and never heard a thing from it. It was being touched by a rod nut.
