From what I know, not much but< the mains are run with .002 and .003 on rear and the rods are run at .002, and the piston to wall cl. is .001 to .0015 more than required for the type of piston you are running. on automotine set ups they TRY to keep the rod and mains at .001 to .0015 too tight in my opinion. also the timing is 38 to 40 total where in a marine engine 34 is max
