Bronze guide clearance

Bronze guide clearance....

Whats the general consensus on clearances required for bronze guides..?

Kibblewhite guides + black diamond valves.

Thanks.

I've never dealt with that, but the google search of 'bronze+valve+guides' brings up several helpful threads, including some on your kibblewhite guides...

Thank 2many, I have read others ideas about the clearances...some guys seem to run them real tight..? was just wondering what others thought....migh send Craig an e-mail as I couldnt see any references in his performance guide at all...

Myself, I'd run them a 'lil tighter. The bronze expands more, some folks think that it expands inward, but it actually enlarges the bore. I have the expansion rate for bronze in my 'clutch pushrod experiments' thread...
