1945 2N engine full rebuild. New sleeves, pistons and rings
Main and rod bearings, crank turned and line bored, and new
valves with adjustable lifters
Question is on my rod caps. I kept the caps with the same rods,
but I just realized that I didn't keep track of which way the caps
go on the rods. Do the bearing notches go opposite of each
other? I cant find anything in the manual. Also some time in its
life it has had the caps rearranged. None of the cap numbers
match the rods and I have two number 2 caps.
If it matters or not the crank was ground .020 under for the rods
and I have the correct bearings for them. Mains done and
installed but I haven't plastigaged the rods yet.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Corey
