2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 lock

A correctly honed surface will have a crosshatch
appearance with the lines at 15° to 25° angles with
the top of the cylinder block. For the rough hone, use
80 grit honing stones. To finish hone, use 280 grit hon-
ing stones.
A maximum of 1.2 micrometer (48 microinch) surface
finish must be obtained.
After finish honing is complete, immediately clean the
cylinder bores with a strong solution of laundry deter-
gent and hot water.
After rinsing, blow the block dry.
Check the bore cleanliness by wiping with a white, lint-free, lightly- oiled cloth. There should be no grit residue
present.
If the block is not to be used right away, coat it with a rust- preventing compound.

BORE DIAMETER STEP DIMENSION
104.500 + 0.015 mm (4.1142 + 0.0006 in.) 6.35 mm (0.25 in.)
If more than a 1.00 mm (0.03937 inch) diameter oversize bore is required, the block must be bored and a repair
sleeve installed.
Bore the block cylinder bore to 104.500-104.515 mm (4.1142-4.1148 inch).
Repair sleeves can be replaced by using a boring bar to bore out the old sleeve. DO NOT cut the cylinder bore
beyond the oversize limit.
After machining the block for the new repair sleeve,
thoroughly clean the bore of all metal chips, debris
and oil residue before installing the sleeve.
Cool the repair sleeve(s) to a temperature of -12°C
(10°F) or below for a minimum of one hour. Be ready
to install the sleeve immediately after removing it from
the freezer.
Apply a coat of Loctite 620, or equivalent to the bore
that is to be sleeved.
Wear protective gloves to push the cold sleeve into
the bore as far as possible.

Using a sleeve driver (1), drive the sleeve (2) downward until it contacts the step at the bottom of the bore.

After removing the boring bar, use a honing stone to chamfer the corner of the repair sleeve(s).
A correctly honed surface will have a crosshatch appearance with the linesat 15° to 25° angles with the top of the
cylinder block. For the rough hone, use 80 grit honing stones. To finish hone, use 280 grit honing stones.
Finished bore inside dimension is 102.020 ±0.020 mm (4.0165 ±0.0008 inch).
A maximum of 1.2 micrometer (48 microinch) surface finish must be obtained.
After finish honing is complete, immediately clean the cylinder bores with a strong solution of laundry detergent and
hot water.
After rinsing, blow the block dry with compressed air.
Wipe the bore with a white, lint-free, lightly oiled cloth. Make sure thereis no grit residue present.
Apply a rust-preventing compound if the block will not be used immediately.
A standard diameter piston and a piston ring set must be used with a sleeved cylinder bore.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - CAM BORE REPAIR
For standard bushings, not oversized, maximum front
cam bushing bore diameter is 59.248 mm. (2.3326
in.). DO NOT bore the intermediate cam bore to the
front cam bore oversize dimensions. Maximum front
camshaft bushing installed diameter is 54.147 mm.
(2.1318 in.). Minimum installed diameter is 54.083
mm. (2.1293 in.). Maximum intermediate camshaft
bore diameter is 54.164 mm. (2.1324 in.).
A surface finish of 2.3 micrometers (92 microinch)
must be maintained. Not more than 20% of an area of
any one bore may be 3.2 micrometers (126 micro-
inch).
Camshaft bores can be repaired individually. It is not necessary to repairundamaged cam bores in order to repair
individually damaged cam bores. The standard front bushing (1) cannot be used to repair intermediate bores.
Install all cam bushings flush or below the front and rear cam bore surface.The front camshaft bushing should be
installed flush with front face of block. The oil hole must align to allow a 3.2 mm (0.125 inch) rod to pass through
freely.
INSPECTION
Measure the combustion deck face using a straight
edge (1) and a feeler gauge (2). Cylinder block flat-
ness: End-to-end 0.076 mm ( .003 in.). Maximum vari-
ation side-to-side 0.051 mm (.002 in.).
