Hi,
I am trying to find the correct thicknesses for connecting rod and crankshaft main bearing shells but ran into an issue.
For crankshaft main bearings you need the markings on the crankshaft and the outside of the engine block. The first one no problem, the engine mount where the numbers should be are just some unreadable ingravings. A couple of sixes but not the eight numbers that should be there, two for the balancer shaft and four for the main bearings..... On the bearings themselves the colours are almost gone so it is next to impossible to make them out.
For the connecting rod same story. Numbers on crankshaft are there but the ink on connecting rods is gone. Also the colour of these shells is almost gone.
How can I get around this? Am I missing something here?
Thank you!
