Clearance Desired: .0005" to .002"

Maximum Allowable: .0025"

(From Service Manual)

but I'd bet you would get by just fine all the way to .003"

What are the torque specs for the mains, rods and head?? I'm trying to get this thing together quickly so I can go out of town for a funeral and I don't want to leave it apart while I'm gone. Thanks, mike
