Assembly

1. Record the main bearing code found on the front of the engine block.





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.
- Read the first letter of the engine block main bearing code and the first letter of the crankshaft main bearing code.

- 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 2 intersect. This is the required bearing grade for the No. 1 crankshaft main bearing.

- 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".

- Repeat this process for the remaining 4 main bearings.





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. NOTE: Before assembling the cylinder block, all sealing surfaces must be free of chips, dirt, paint and foreign material. Also, make sure the coolant and oil passages are clear.

Install the 6 crankshaft upper main bearings into the cylinder block and lubricate them with clean engine oil.

6. NOTE: Before assembling the cylinder block, all sealing surfaces must be free of chips, dirt, paint and foreign material. Also, make sure the coolant and oil passages are clear.

Install the crankshaft upper main bearings into the cylinder block and lubricate them with clean engine oil.





7. Install the crankshaft into the cylinder block and onto the upper crankshaft main bearings.





8. NOTE: If equipped, the oil groove on the thrust washer must face toward the crankshaft thrust surface.

Push the crankshaft rearward and install the rear upper crankshaft thrust washer at the back of the No. 6 main boss.





9. NOTE: If equipped, the oil groove on the thrust washer must face toward the crankshaft thrust surface.

Push the crankshaft forward and install the front upper crankshaft thrust washer at the front of the No. 6 main boss.





10. NOTE: To aid in assembly, apply petroleum jelly to the back of the crankshaft thrust washer.

NOTE: If equipped, the oil groove on the thrust washer must face toward the crankshaft thrust surface.

Install the lower crankshaft thrust washer to the back side of the No. 6 main bearing cap, with oil grooves facing the crankshaft surface, and install the No. 6 rear main bearing cap.





11. Install the No. 1 through No. 5 crankshaft lower main bearings into the main bearing caps. Locate the main bearing caps on the cylinder block and, keeping the cap as square as possible, alternately draw the cap down evenly using the cap fasteners.

12. Install the 12 bolts.





13. Install the 12 dowel pins so that the flat sides face the crankshaft. Install the 12 cross-mounted bolts.





14. Tighten fasteners 1 through 12 in 2 stages, in the sequence shown.

16. Check the piston-to-cylinder block and piston ring clearances. For additional information, refer to Engine.

17. Assemble the 10 pistons. For additional information, refer to Piston Piston - Disassembly And Assembly.

18. Make sure the ring gaps (oil spacer-A, oil ring-B, compression ring-C) are correctly spaced around the circumference of the piston.





19. Make sure the dimple in the piston faces the front of the engine.





20. Using the Connecting Rod Installer and the Piston Ring Compressor, install the piston and connecting rod assembly.





21. NOTICE: Do not scratch the cylinder walls or crankshaft journals with the connecting rod, or engine damage may occur.

Once the connecting rod is seated on the crankshaft journal, remove the Connecting Rod Installer.





22. NOTICE: The rod cap installation must keep the same orientation as marked during disassembly or engine damage may occur.

NOTE: The connecting rod caps are of the "cracked" design and must mate with the connecting rod ends. Excessive bearing clearance will result if not mated correctly.

Install the connecting rod bearings, position the connecting rod cap and loosely install the 2 new bolts.

23. NOTE: Be sure to tighten the bolts in 2 stages.

Tighten the connecting rod bolts in the sequence shown.

- Stage 1: Tighten to 43 Nm (32 lb-ft).

- Stage 2: Tighten an additional 105 degrees.





24. Rotate the crankshaft and repeat the procedure to position each connecting rod at bottom dead center until all bolts are tightened to specification.

25. Position the oil pump and install the 3 bolts.
- Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).





26. Install the oil pump screen and pickup tube spacer.
- Tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).





27. NOTICE: Make sure the O-ring is in place and not damaged. A missing or damaged O-ring can cause foam in the lubrication system, low oil pressure and severe engine damage.

NOTE: Clean and inspect the mating surfaces and install a new O-ring. Lubricate the O-ring with clean engine oil prior to installation.

Position the oil pump screen and pickup tube and install the 3 bolts.

- Tighten the oil pump screen and pickup tube-to-oil pump bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).

- Tighten the oil pump screen and pickup tube-to-spacer bolt to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).





28. Rotate the crankshaft to position the keyway at 12 o'clock.





29. NOTICE: Make sure all coolant residue and foreign material are cleaned from the block surface and cylinder bore, or engine damage may occur.

NOTICE: The use of sealing aids (aviation cement, copper spray and glue) is not permitted. The gasket must be installed dry or engine damage may occur.

NOTICE: The cylinder head bolts must be discarded and new bolts installed or engine damage may occur. They are a tighten-to-yield design and cannot be reused.

NOTE: Do not turn the crankshaft until instructed to do so.

NOTE: LH shown, RH similar.

Using the Cylinder Head Alignment Pins, position the cylinder head gaskets and cylinder heads over the dowels and install the 24 cylinder head bolts loosely.
