I'll just post them. Here's the main ones and this is for a stroker with a blower so it may be a little different for a 4.6. This is from Sean Hyland.

Ring Gaps: Top Ring 0.018
Second Ring 0.024

Main Bearing Clearances: 0.0012" to 0.003" (pretty stinking tight)
Rod bearing Clearances: 0.002" to 0.003" (as above, real stinking tight!!!)

I have Manley Platinum Series .030 bore Pistons dished 23cc and Manley forged stroker I-Beam rods. Sealed Power Rings, Federal Mogul rod and main bearings. Forged crank.

Anything else boys let me know .

FWIW, why did you choose the FRPP blower rather than a KB 1.7/2.2? Cost?

With a built motor like yours, even a 1.7 would make far more power.

Cost and availability.
KB doesn't have a kit for PI swapped 96-98 2V and I only paid 2300 new in box for this eaton & install kit. Thats $1,000 less then its going for and a good 1500-1800 less then a KB. I'm not looking for big power, just some fun when I push down the gas pedal.

I had the whole headswap issue but there is really very little difference in KB kits for 96-98 cars and 99+ cars. You just have to tap a hole under the thermostat housing on the intake coolant rail, reroute some vacuum lines, and do a little modification with the fuel pressure return lines. They give you a 96-98 supplement install manual which is really small. I think your car will be making enough power as it is with the FRPP. Nothing wrong with that blower. I looked at it as well.

i was curious what had to be done to adapt a KB but when i called them last year to inquire about it they were less then helpful.
