    383 Clearence-How Much?

     



    I'm putting together a 383. I've got 2 rods that come a little too close to the cam, and six that are too close to the outer cylinder bottom. Is the famed coat hanger the proper measuring device?

    The famed coat hanger is plenty. If you've got that you're in good shape.
