Default 429 Pilot Bushing

OK let me try this. There is an outer bore on a 429 crankshaft that is 1.850 in diameter. There are both pilot bushings and bearings that will fit this counterbore. Both bushings and bearings are a little over .500 thick meaning they will protrude from the back of the crank because the counterbore is about .400 deep. My question is, is there sufficient clearance between the pilot bushing and the spline on the input shaft of a toploader using a bellhousing that is 6.250 deep? Thank you.
