Default Crank Main Bearings Info Help

I'm going to be ordering new bearings for my build in 2 weeks so I've disassembled my spare block and cant tell what colors were used for bearings. for a z6 if anyones wondering.

On the block it has the following <-Pulley| B B B C B |Flywheel->
On the crank it has the following <-Pulley| 2 2 3 2 3 |Flywheel->

Would the colors be the following <-Pulley| Yellow Yellow Green Green Green |Flywheel->

I know i may need different sizes then what block/crank may say now since it has some mileage on it. But seeing as to how half are Yellow and half are Green (if im reading this correctly) i was going to get 1 set of green and 1 set of yellow to plastiguage and determine from there if i need a different size or not.

Soo...am i on the right track so far??

Thanks in advanced,

Mondo

first of all, thank you for writing a post that's easy to understand

pg1 & pg3 have what you need ^

you've got it exactly right. and yes it's best to check your clearances anyway like you said.

what are your plans for the engine? time to worry about ring gap too

thanks for the link!

Plans are to boost. I have 75.5 vitaras on order from FJT and eagle rods will be ordered today. Have new oil pump already along with bottom gasket kit. Just need bearings and thrust washers and possibly a block guard. All this is on a spare z6 block.

My goal is to have it all rdy to swap bottom ends on thanksgiving weekend. I got a few months so theres a possibility ill be able to build the head too. I wont boost though till after break in and around Jan probably.
