Hi, have a friend building his engine, eagle rods, 0,25 oversized acl race bearings and crank modified to 0,25.

Well, we are just confused because:

- nissan manual say clearance have to be 0.20 mm to 0.45 mm , max 0.65 mm

- clearance measured of the old stock rods and bearings with stock crank that was running this s14 before the rebuild is 0.10 mm

- clearance with new acl bearings, eagle rods and new 0,25 crank is 0,10 mm


I know that too low clearance will be dangerous, but what do you think about 0,10 mm is it dangerous or can i leave it like this?

thanks
