how much can crank be ground?

I just got an engine kit from P.A.W. And I'm kinda worried because the crank came with bearings that say .30 on them. I haven't had a chance to measure it yet but am wondering if it is a good idea to run this crank or not?

If I were you I wouldn't race a .030" under crank. If you are putting it into a daily driver than by all means it should be fine for that and maybe an occasional pull down the drag strip. Still if you have a heavy foot on the street or think you'll be racing it more than just occasionally than at least have your rotating assembly balanced... Mike

Thanks that's what I was thinking. I't only gonna be a daily driver and maybe a little stoplight racing so It won't be revving that high.
