Default Swapping cranks?????? Which main should I use?????

Hey

I am about to swap cranks in my block I am wondering should I use the mains from the original block or the mains from the crank that I am going to swap in?

Do you mean the main bearing caps? They definitely stay with the block they were machined with originally.

Definately use the mains from the original block.Dont swap mains unless you have them align honed,as each set of mains is specifically machined for each block.
