i make up a long feeler gage out of cardboard a bout 060 thick or abit thicker and turn it thru by have i do one hole at a time with no rings on the pistons if every thing you have clears the rods if scat could be the they used a short bolt and this will give you more room so you do not have to nip the bolt heads you with a thru bolt rod want to TQ them up so you know the end of the bolt will clear the oil pan rail to this is what we have to do to get them big cranks to swing thru
