Default Aluminium Block hot bearing clearances

No problem appreciate the input.

It had occurred to me that fitting oversize 0.001" bearings without measuring clearances may cause some tightness or clearance issues. that might only happen if the Block wasn't straight...

The engine has sat for a few years since it was dynoed in NZ, then sealed with no pushrods, plenty of oil etc in the bore, I have even primed the oil system on one occasion. Just trying to protect my investment until I get the rest of the car finished.
