I'm making a list of parts I'll need to purchase... Please let me know if I'm forgetting something or if I don't need something I've listed.

Bought an engine that spun a rod bearing, when I got the oil pan off, there was no bearing. I don't know how many miles are on this engine, it's not the original engine. Car has 50K on it.

I bought pistons/rods/crank assembly already.

Thanks.

1 each MD326353 Size "4" Crank Main Bearing
3 each MD326352 Size "3" Crank Main Bearing
1 each MD326351 Size "2" Crank Main Bearing

4 each MD326360 Size "1" Con Rod Big End Bearing (Crank is marked with II for all 4 rods)

1 each MD351820 Thrust Bearing Set

4 each MN155259 Piston Ring Set (Standard Bore)

2 each MD970389 Engine Gasket Maker

MN155760 - Head Gasket
Motor already includes ARP head studs

Timing Belt Kit - Water Pump Included...

MR464630 Engine Oil Cooler

 

New Oil cooler and Oil pump

 

+1 for the new oil cooler...

 

Rear Main seal

 

cool, thanks guys!

 

Do I need to get the front cover of the oil pump, or just the gasket and gears?

 

Just get a new oil pump and save yourself the time and money for in the long run.

 

COOL. Thanks!

 

Is it just me, or does CAPS conflict with the FSM on which direction to read the crankshaft bearing bore from the bottom of the block... Caps reads from the timing belt toward the flywheel as 1-5 and the FSM reads from 5-1 ..?

The picture I took is looking at the block like it's in CAPS so my mains bores are:

(In CAPS)
No.1 : 1
No.2 : 1
No.3 : 1
No.4 : 1
No.5 : 2

(In FSM)

No.1 : 2
No.2 : 1
No.3 : 1
No.4 : 1
No.5 : 1

so my bearings could be either...

Crank Block Bearing Size
2 2 4
2 1 3
1 1 2
2 1 3
2 1 3

-------OR------

Crank Block Bearing Size
2 1 3
2 1 3
1 1 2
2 1 3
2 2 4




Anybody got any insight on this? Thanks.
