Re: My SBC 383 Build.

Some progress. Did a mock up to set main and rod clearances. Took a couple of different bearing sets to get what we wanted. This is what we ended up with on a 82 F day.

Runout measured .008
Crank endplay is .005
Main clearance is set up between .0017-.0019
Rear main set at .0025
Rods came in at .0022

Based on these I'm going to run Std volume / Std pressure oil pump. Going to use the Melling Select series.
