Default bearing clearances

Ok i'm planning a procharger build for my camaro. I went and talked to a few machine shops and i'm getting different answers from each. This being forced induction it is a new thing to me. this is going to be a street drivin car that will see track use. It's a 350 bored 30 over with billit main caps, lunati sledgehammer crank manley h-beams and lunati blower forged pistons. I will be using hellfire rings. Not sure of the gap for rings either yet i'm getting different answers there also. i'm looking to run a lower boost level for street use but be able to turn it up for track use. I will be ordering a custom cam. Let me know if you need more info to help me out with this. Thanks in advance.

Brad

.0025 on the mains
.002 on the rods
general rule of thubm is .001 for every inch of journal diameter.

use the recomended ring gap from your piston manufacturer for forced induction applications.
