Piggybacking off my last thread, I reached out to the engine builder of my motor requesting the bearing clearances. His "break in" sheet with the motor says to run 5W40 or 10W40, but if needed 5W30 or 10W30 could be used. Wanting more information I reached out for the clearances and this is what I was told:
"We do not include our build sheets with shortblocks. It would be a fee of $250 for us to provide the build sheet. Clearances have been set for the application discussed and because we keep all the data on file, it will be available if a failure happens."
Wasn't the news I was hoping for in the email but I wanted to ask you guys if there is any way to figure out the most ideal oil weight without it. The only thing I could think of is possibly an oil pressure gauge info.
