I would agree with your post if that engine still was a Nitro Hemi with AL rods…and I am not suggesting anyone open the side clearances out that far, it is just an example to make that .029” feel warm and fuzzy. The example is a 550 HP 510 stroker street engine with stock factory steel rods in it, only the crank is from a Nitro car. It has a lot of street miles and passes down the strip. We built it back before people were building stroker engines, and after market forged stroker cranks did not exist any place at the time.
