No, we'd be screwed because of all that nasty oil escaping on #1, #2, #3 and #5 main bearings that don't have side clearances. As far as rods, we are looking at maybe .003" rod bearing clearance if really loose and side clearance is at least three to four times that or more. So again side bearing clearance is a moot point on oil control.
