The pistons are all in - everything turns smoothly:
Bob - #s 1/2/3 rod big ends have .0015-.002" clearance to the crankshaft throw journals.... very good and within O/E spec..... #s 4/5/6 are .0025-.003".... beyond OE spec, but still well within the .004" service limit. All that means is that the next rebuild will require a crankshaft regrind or a replacement crankshaft.... these clearances should be fine for a heap o' miles.
