chain sets come in line bore set 005 and 010 for chevy/ford/chrysler they may for olds?? . i would not loose sleep if its a bit loose will not hurt one thing if they line bored it they only drop it down 002or 003 less it was hurt before you get to far set you crank in and check your end play to see if they cut the cap squre when they line bored it or hone it

Pat, they do make one for Olds, .005. They used to make .010, but dropped it (Cloyes) I spoke to Summit today, and am just going to call Cloyes tomorrow to get their feelings.

Good point about the end play, I'll check that next time we are at the shop. We did get rid of that rope rear seal Olds uses. Turns out a 460 Ford 2 piece rubber seal goes right in there. I picked up one today.
