Re: Engine Assembly Questions



Be sure to platigage  ever Main  Bearing, and every Rod bearing.  DO not assume that they have the same cut on the throws.  Save my self a lot of time and money doing that.  A friend lost an engine by not doing that .

Hello,

I'm going to be assembling an engine and I have a few simple
questions:

What is recommended for assembly lube on rods and mains?

Any recommendations on using plastigage to check rod and main
bearings?

What is recommended for lubricating pistons when installing in the
block?

Just asking because it was a long time ago when I put my last engine
together, lubricants have changed.

This is Mopar related, it is a 1954 331 Hemi, don't want to make
stupid mistakes.  I do have Tex Smith's "The Complete Chrysler Hemi
Engine Manual", a very good book.

Thanks.
Dennis C.
