Federal-Mogul lists the clearance for insert-converted 216 and 235 rods at .0005"-.0026". I use green Plastigauge and shoot for a .0015" clearance range. Ignore the "tap it with a hammer" advice- - - -there are much more accurate ways of checking clearance, and Plastigauge is the simplest. There's also a method involving using a small piece of shim stock between the bearing and the crankshaft and shimming until you get a "firm drag" as the crankshaft is turned, but it takes hundreds of rod adjustments to develop a feel for the right amount of drag. That's how it was done before Plastigauge was invented in the early 1950's.
