It not that hard. There is letter mark on the crank for sure. Just take your time and look carefullly. If you can't find it then just rotate the crank until you see it.

Whichever has 5 is for the mains.

Whichever 4 has for are for the rods...

Thats exactly what im doing. Im buyin a set of ACL or Clevites then checking the clearances with them. Whatever needs to be adjusted will be changed with oem colored bearings.

letters on the block are for the mains, numbers on the crank are for mains, letters on the crank are for rods, numbers on rods are for rods
start left to right
should go to dealership or use manual though you can cause serious damage or lots of extra money
good luck

I run the shop here in Maryland, we are not affilated with them in anyway. I am in the process of getting ready to get there name shut down. I am not happy they copied my name. Thats not how we run our business here. Building motors all the time and getting them out the door.
