gurus/builders???motor too tight???
how tight is too tight (i.e. bearings/crank) ???
i am getting to the final stages of my build, oil pans are on, rockers in, bout to install cams now to button up the top end.
i tossed on the crank pulley and went to turn it slightly just to re-align for TDC to install the cams, gears, and everything else.
it was very difficult to turn, forceful even.
it is a det block, and de head. also vvl head gasket.
arp studs.
everything else is built to spec. i even used the stock grade bearings, as opposed to everyones suggestion of going one grade tighter.
it will be turbo when its done.
help/suggestions/experience please
