I don't have the bearing clearances here in front of me, but I'll post them tomorrow. I usually aim for about .001"/in of journal, and after some half/half mixing, I got them there. So in this case, it would be around .0021" on the rods, .0027" on the mains.

Piston to wall clearance is a little looser than most with these Probes. They have a spec of .003-.007" and these fell right in the middle.

Pistons are about .007" in the hole if you measure over the wrist pin. If you measure on the quench pad with piston rock, they are within about .002" of the deck surface.

The Dart Iron Eagle block has 4 bolt caps all the way across.
