Well, started checking main bearing clearances and I think that I won't have to mix bearings to get the clearance I want. Which is really nice.

What stinks is that Oliver said that they would be more than 4 weeks getting me a set of the 2.100" rods.

So to solve that problem, I ordered a set of their 2.000" rods and I'll have the crank cut down to the smaller journal. Much better scenario anyway and we won't have to wait 4+ weeks.

For all of you who think that building custom street/race engines is easy....I'm sticking my tongue out at you.
