lol, your fuel pump has nothing at all to do with your rod bearings. Buy a HELMS factory service manual, and say a prayer before you start tearing **** up.

Get a Helms and even then the bearing spacing is real tricky

fuelpump? man u sure you really wanna replace it yourself? its not exactly something you would want to tackle if you dont really know what you're doing. while you're in there i would go ahead and replace the main bearings and i'm sure you're aware that you also should replace thrust washers if you're in there anyway. are you planning on reringing it or just taking the rod off the crank and putting the new bearings in with the piston still in the cylinder? oh and GET A DAMN HELMS MANUAL you should have one already if you're asking this.

but if u must know, on a y7 motor...
main bearing cap bolts- step 1 - 15ft/lb
step 2 - 38ft/lb
oil pickup tube bolts - 17ft/lb
oil pan bolts - 9ft/lb

good luck

I agree with everyone on here get a damn HELMS and take the car to the shop it might cost money but its cheaper then buying all new internals or motor (in some cases)

you dont need to replace that rod bearing. take it to a mechanic. you're only going to do more harm than good. tell me where the thrust washers go and MAYBE you'll be ok figuring it out. if you cant answer that dont touch inside your motor.

i did this on my y7 (replaced one rod bearing) and it still knocked afterwards because the big end of the rod was warped from all the heat. i did it for ***** and giggles cause i already had another motor for it.

ok.....if you plan on fixing this motor....and then build the same motor you're fixing......then it's not gonna work....bceasue you cant "temporarily" fix spun bearings...if you think that's how it's gonna go....then get out the jb weld i guess.....to put your cylinder walls back together.......lol!!!!

i dont understand your logic behind a spun bearing causing damage to the cylinder walls. so long as the piston rings remain intact then the cylinder walls will be perfectly fine. the only thing i would worry about is that bearing looked pretty bad, you might want to take that crank to a machine shop and have them take a look at it. i've had a bearing spin so badly before that it actually welded the rod bearing to the crank itself. i had to cut it off to get the rod out. which sucks because b16 cranks are a tad more expensive than one for your y7. i dunno if you're anywhere close to the chattanooga, tn area but if so i have a couple extra y7/y8 cranks laying around. i'd let em go for next to nothing, just get that **** outta my garage its taking up space. i could probably ship one to you, just using a lot of peanuts or whatever to make sure no stress is put on it so it won't warp, but that **** is heavy and shipping would probably be quite a bit. let me know.
