If the rod tolerances were not great than I guess there is no getting around that. But I don't really see why the same problems don't occur with main or rod bearings. They need to have around 3 thousandths clearance, and I can buy a standard 10 thousandths oversize bearing set that I can just install and doesn't require any further custom work. I have to have the crank made to spec, but that is similar to having the wrist pin to spec (which it should be since it's new in this case). I don't need to (generally) worry about the the block or rod holes that house those bearings though, and I don't need to worry about any custom work on the bearings after I install them. So why is this bushing so much different?
Thanks

I’m par
