I'm not a machanical engineer or anything, but i know my way around engines
fairly well, and have this question.  The factory manual states crankshaft
endfloat to be .006-.008, I know some engines use a tighter clearance (.002
or so) than this on the endfloat.  Are there any reasons that it would be
unadviseable to run with endfloat at .003-.004 by using a combination of
stock & oversize thrust washers?  Has anyone tried running a tighter end
float than the specs call for? 


Thanx in advance,

Scott Drake
