 Finally back to my 2.2L build after detour into Audis for a few years...

Just realized that different sources have different main bearing clearance specs. My Motorbooks International Jensen Healey Shop Manual says 0.00125-0.0025 in, while several sources online give 0.0005-0.0022 in.

What say those that have been there? Asking because after moving shells around I’m pretty consistently at 0.001 in. Crank does spin easily just pulling with a pinky finger, and I’m aware of the different expansion rates, but the different specs are giving me pause.
