Ok everyone let me start off by saying this isn't my first engine build. Though not to say I'm an experienced engine guru either. My problem is likely because the machine shop I had gone to for machining the crank aren't experienced with these motors and assured me 0.0025 clearances would be fine. I'm pretty sure I had looked it up at some point and seen a few other rebuilt sr's running this loose so at the time I didn't think anything of it.
I'm fairly certain this was my issue and I'll be sure to change my approach on the next rebuild. If anyone agrees please keep your negative comments to yourself and just post some insight. Maybe with enough gathered info we can repost this as a sticky for sr engine rebuilds, kind of a "do's and Dont's" list.
