Got Lock to Lock

That is not a term that I am familiar with.

The main and rod bearings are not shimmed if that is what you mean. It is a Continental engine not an Allis. Pistons must be installed from the bottom. I think it is easier to put the pistons up from the bottom without rings. You can install the rings and use a ring compressor then tap the pistons down. They can be installed rings and all from the bottom but with my large hands it is kinda tedious.

all rod & main caps are machined with the caps lock to lock...numbers mean nothing

OK, Tab to tab would have clicked in, So should lock to lock even though I had not heard the term.

Kent and Dick are right . I do not understand .you say that if you match the stenciled 1 upper rod half so that the 1 on the lower rod cap is on the same side the locks are not toward the same rod bolt or that they are not inline for they arent inline one is always offset to the other but are on the same rod bolt.I know its too late but next time I prefer a small punch but have stencils . but here is the trick punch the number on the rod upper and lower half to the jouranl it is on and also punch the oil pan rail as to which side you punched the rod halfs on. this does three things it of coarse matched marked the rod halves and also to the crank journal but it also locates which way the rod turns some rods are offset and being turned correctly to the crank rod journal makes for less headaches.

In NJ we call it lock to lock,But tab to tab is good . But I got it they go tab to tab ,got this G in boxs,thanks to Joe M{ga} for the dowenload thanks to all for the good info carman

Check with others about how to be sure the oil pump is PRIMED (or WILL prime), before you start it..
I have seen these refuse to initially Prime...
And you about have to remove the engine to remove the oil pan..!!

Just thought you might like to know...
