AMG block build specifications?
Anyone know where you can find the AMG detailed block build up / assembly specifications? Bearing tolerances, etc. etc?
My STAR CD just does not seem to go into those details.

Not a good question, hope all is ok. FYI pistons are available separately now.

Why is there so much animosity towards Corvettes around here? Is it engine envy?

I have a Technical Data Manual(a rediculiously overpriced book), PM me what info you need, I can get it to you. I do need your engine number though to get the correct info. I can get the number by your vin if you don't know it.

Whatcha up to? Sounds interesting... Someone has to have these specs in a service manual or something? If your going to rev the **** out of the motor I would loosen up the tolerances a tad.
I would not run any less then .0015 thousands of an inch oil clearance for the rod bearings and .002 - .0022 thousands of an inch oil clearance for the main bearings.

I am sure you will find the numbers you need, Here are a few bottom end threads to pass the time.

It seems a custom large litre motor can cost less than messing with mostly factory MB parts..
At that point, I guess factory specs would be pretty much obsolete..

Haha, not quite... The engine builders and machinists I've come across state side use inches for all types of engine bearing clearances. I still use MM frequently though, say measuring a throttle body or cylinder bore. But, for really small stuff reading in thousands of an inch is easier and seems more precise.

So, what is the factory engine bearing clearances? My guess its little tighter then specs I listed above.
