Assembly
CAUTION:Cleaning Aluminum Surfaces
Do not use abrasive grinding discs to remove gasket material; use only plastic manual scrapers. Do not scratch or gouge aluminum sealing surfaces.
NOTE: Before assembling cylinder block, all sealing surfaces must be clean and free of chips, dirt, paint and foreign material. Also, make sure coolant and oil passages are clear.
1. Lubricate with clean engine oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C910-A1 and install crankshaft main bearings into cylinder block. Install crankshaft main bearings and crankshaft thrust main bearing into main bearing caps.
2. Install crankshaft into cylinder block.
3. Push crankshaft rearward. Lubricate and install upper crankshaft thrust washer (6334) by rolling the crankshaft thrust washer onto machined shelf between rear side of No. 5 bulkhead and thrust surface of crankshaft. Make sure coated side of crankshaft thrust washer with three 5 mm wide oil grooves faces the crankshaft thrust surface.
NOTE: Crankshaft main bearing cap adjusting screws must be bottomed on main bearing cap prior to installation of main bearing cap.
4. Install main bearing caps. Tap main bearing caps with a brass hammer to seat caps properly.
5. Push crankshaft forward using a prybar or similar tool until crankshaft thrust face is flush with number five bulkhead.
NOTE: No. 5 main bearing cap must be seated until the main bearing cap bolts are fully tightened below.
6. With crankshaft pushed forward, install prybars or similar tools to push both RH and LH front edges of No. 5 main bearing cap rearward and position the lower crankshaft thrust main bearing rear face properly against the thrust face of the crankshaft.
CAUTION: Main bearing bolts must be replaced with NEW bolts. They are torque-to-yield designed and cannot be reused.
7. Tighten new main bearing cap bolts in two steps as follows:
a. Tighten bolts in sequence to 37-43 Nm (27-32 ft. lbs.).
b. Rotate bolts in sequence 85-95°.
8. Tighten crankshaft main bearing cap adjusting screws in sequence shown to 9-11 Nm (80-97 inch lbs.).
9. Tighten main bearing cap bolts in sequence shown to 19-23 Nm (14-17 ft. lbs.).

NOTE: Make sure cylinder heads are installed in their original positions.
19. If cylinder heads are being serviced, see cylinder head Disassembly and Assembly.
CAUTION: Do not use sandpaper coarser than 600 grit or damage to sealing surfaces may occur.
NOTE: Clean cylinder head gasket surface with a toluene-based paint thinner or gasket remover. If gasket material remains on head after cleaning, use a 600-grit sandpaper to remove remaining material. RH and LH head gaskets are NOT interchangeable.
