im ready to put my bottom end togeather on my h22, when i bought the motor it was all apart from a friend, i need to buy new bearings,i had the crank polished and some other things done, but i measured all the crank jurnals, and got the codes of the crank and the motor for the sizes, because this is my first build i have no clue what to use for oil clearence, and i have no clue how to figure out what bearing colors to get because i dont have the bearings to use plasticgauge on. so how do i go about this. if any one has like a color to thickness chart, or has advice or can help me please respond or PM me.

thanks

plastigauge or mic'ing everything out are the only ways to get bearing codes (sizes).

 

i have all the crank jurnals mic'ed, as soon as i get my tq wrench im gonna put the main caps and main studs in and measure the main bore and rod bores, but i dont have the og bearings- so how do i find what size bearings to use

 

if some one can help me out, i will pm them all my measurments if they can figure out what bearing specs im gonna need

i know there is some one here who can help me

 

It will be in the factory service manual. You should pick one up if you putting a bottom end together. Seriously the best 60 bucks you will have spent in a long time!! It has a chart in the manual.

 

there should be stampings on the crank and the block. they correspond with each other and give you the factory bearing colors.

 

i have a helms book, but i cant make ence of this stuff, i have all the codes from the crank and motor they read like this
(flywheel to pully)
main jurnal 23446
main bore 32334
rod jurnal ccbc
rod bore 2232

i have miced the crank to

(flywheel to pully)
mains
49.99mm 49.985mm 49.97mm 49.98mm 49.96mm
rods
47.98mm 47.97mm 47.975mm 47.975mm
