every ring set is different , they have specs on honing and ring gap that you can go with . normally you would buy the ring set for a 4.600 bore at 4.605 , then file fit per each cyl , the bearings are another story , you will need to start with a std set of H bearings ,torque them up in the block as if the crank was in the block , then measure the crank mains, set your dial bore gauge off of that mike , then read each main, that will give you the oil clearance , .002.5 + or - .000.3. , if you come up with different clearance # , you will need to start mismatching bearings (like 1/2 set of 001under size bearings or ? ) then you do the same with the rods . good luck with the build ,
