2470Packard,

I've attached some info on Packard engine bearing clearances and recommended clearances for engines of the same period.

Also a publication from Clevite gives some insight into the topic.

As a general rule .001 inch clearance per 1 inch shaft diameter is acceptable for sleeve type bearings.

Regards,

Dave
