Crank bearing caps

Posted by John London, Tx on April 09, 2006 at 05:08:42 from (65.127.72.196):

I had a cracked cylinder wall on a H, and found a salvage yard block to replace it. Finally got it back from machine shop with new sleeves, cam bearings and started putting it back together on Saturday. I thought it would be best to use the crank bearing caps that were with the "new" block rather than using the caps that went with the original block. It did not work very well that way-the center and rear bearing would bind the crank up before the bolts were tightened. After several attempts I wound up with the front cap from the old block and the center and rear caps from the new block and the crank will now turn with the bolts tightened. I haven't torqued them in yet or checked clearance. Plan to do that today. My concern at this point is whether mixing caps will cause grief later. Thanks-John
