Still don`t mean they were lined up, u might have a little more clearance if they were. Not lined up can cause them to fail---------
I prefer around .007 myself. < 2 factory hemi`s I had came out with .007 .
I put one together w/ .005 clearance and ruined the crank surface, made sure I got the full travel and lined up from then on, with the chamfered oil grooves and haven`t had a failure since.
Have .006 on this 505-----much as I could get out of it !
