Assembly
NOTE:
Before assembling the cylinder block, all sealing surfaces must be free from chips, dirt, paint
and foreign material. Also, make sure the coolant and oil passages are clear.
1. Record the main bearing code found on the front of the engine block. Installer, Crankshaft Rear Oil

2. Record the main bearing code found on the back of the crankshaft.
3. Using the data recorded earlier and the Bearing Select Fit Chart, Standard Bearings determine
the required bearing grade for each main bearing.
zRead the first letter of the engine block main bearing code and the first letter of the
crankshaft main bearing code.
z Read down the column below the engine block main bearing code letter, and across the
row next to the crankshaft main bearing code letter, until the two intersect. This is the
required bearing grade for the number one crankshaft main bearing.
z As an example, if the engine block code letter is "F" and the crankshaft code letter is "D",
the correct bearing grade for this main bearing is a "2".
z Repeat this process for the remaining four main bearings. Klj . 3 ba

4. If oversize bearings are being used, use the procedure in the previous step and the Bearing
Select Fit Chart, Oversize Bearings to determine the required bearing grade for each main
bearing.
5. Install the crankshaft upper main bearings into the cylinder block and lubricate them with clean engine oil.
6. Install the crankshaft onto the upper main bearings. Klj . 4 ba

7.
NOTE: The oil groove on the thrust washer must face toward the front of the engine (against the
crankshaft thrust surface).
Install the thrust washer to the rear of the No. 5 upper main bearing.
8. NOTE: Rotate the jack screws into the bearing caps enough to provide clearance to the cylinder
block, prior to installing the bearing caps
NOTE: Install the thrust bearing to the rear main bearing cap and lubricate it with clean engine
oil.
NOTE: Install the crankshaft lower main bearings into the main bearing caps and lubricate them
with clean engine oil.
Apply forward force to the crankshaft, so that the crankshaft thrust face is against the No. 5
bulkhead. With the crankshaft in this position, locate the No. 5 main bearing cap on the cylinder
block and tap into place using a plastic or dead blow hammer.
zInstall the four remaining main bearing caps. Klj . 5 ba

9. Install the vertical main bearing cap fasteners and tighten in the sequence shown, in two stages.
zStage 1: Tighten to 40 Nm (30 lb- ft).
z Stage 2: Tighten an additional 90 degrees.
10. Tighten the jack screws against the cylinder block in the sequence shown, in two stages. zStage 1: Tighten to 5 Nm (44 lb- in).
z Stage 2: Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb- in). Klj . 6 ba
