so i ordered the parts above.

but i have a little problem.

what bearings to take for the rods?

i want to take oem bearings. but which size? as for brand new rods and crankshaft shall be right or?
and for the crank also oem bearings for brand new components?

hope you can help me guys as it is very hard to get infos here in germany.

thanks

 

what the hell did you order that for? i hope you NEEDED it because you blew your motor or something?

as far as the bearings, I would imagine u can use OEM bearings or ACL bearings I think they are called.

 

hmm yes

a friend of mine made a bearing to ate the other on the 2nd cylinder.
crankshaft is repairable, but i don t like that.

the rod from this cylinder is loking a bit ugly. so i need new ones. and the eagle crank is much cheaper that the oem one in germany. nearly half price because of the good doller curse for importing.

i ordered clevite 77 bearings for whole engine now.

 

Since you opted to go with an aftermarket crankshaft, your best bet is to ask GE what kind of rod bearings are recommended with their crankshafts.

Make sure you get the appropriate specs for the rod bearings. Have those clearances triple checked when the work gets done. No slacking on this type of job. Good luck.

 

thanks for the tip.

eagle told me #3 from the rod bearings charts.

a friend in the us will manage that for me, so that i get the right bearings.

and for sure. everything will be double or tripple checked.

 

Plastigauge is your friend. Be sure to have plenty on hand.
