super a engine questions

the bearings are stamped on the back with 002 both rod and mains. is this a standard size bearing or over sized? my machine shop says standard after measuring them, but i dont trust them 100%.

also i would like to know what the oil tolerance on the rods and mains, so i can plastigage after instilation.

what are the torque specs on rods and mains.

and on the oil pump, the pickup tube swivels, i think by design. but shouldnt there be a o ring in the swivel part? or not.

thanks

thanks

You should take the crankshaft to a reputable
auto machine shop and have it measured. Probably needs at least a polishing. They can supply new bearings too.

Rod torque is 40-45 ft-lbs with nuts using cotter pins and 43-49 ft-lbs with self-locking nuts.
Mains require 75 ft-lbs. I would use a bearing clearance of .001"-.0015". Hal

One lesson I learned was to always measure a crankshaft before ordering bearings. The other was to listen to the young bucks! Don’t just assume that they don’t know what they are doing, but check their work to make sure before you assume (ahh…you know what the word stands for). :>) (BTW I do try to listen to my young sons, many times they are not quite 100% right, but usually they are thinking and on the right track.)
