NEED HELP FAST!!

Alright I'm rebuilding my Integra and I plastigauged my rod bearings and at 33lb-ft the clearence is .025 when it should be a .032 min. When I torque it down at 30lb-ft the clearence is right on at .038. Is it wrong to leave the rod bearings torqued to 30lb-ft or should I get new bearings. These are brand new bearings.

Please only respond if you have experience with this

Re:NEED HELP FAST!!

Factory specs are .0008 - 0.0015

I set up both my mains and rods at .0015" on the money. This clearance is looser than the tight-side of the factory specs, but it's s lot less than some other builders use

Vtec Rod bolt torque is 33lb, LS's are 23lb and if your using Eagles just do 28lb.
