When clearing side seal to corner seal, is it .003 on each end.? Is apex to corner seal .002 on each side?

If so, do I clear .004 on one side to allow for .002 eachside?

The apex to corner seal is .002 on one side not both. The side seal to corner seal is .002-.006. If you clearance to the minimum .002, you will greatly improve the engines compression provided everything else is well with spec.
