Use Tooling (C) to install the piston rings onto the piston.
For the oil control ring, ensure that the ends of the spring are 180 degrees from the ring gap. The white portion of the spring must be visible at the ring gap.
Install the intermediate ring with the side marked "UP-2" toward the top of the piston.
Install the top ring with the side marked "UP-1" toward the top of the piston.
After the rings are installed, rotate the rings so that the gaps are spread apart by 120 degrees. Orient the oil control ring gap toward the bore for the piston pin.

Install the upper half of the connecting rod bearing on the connecting rod. Ensure that the connecting rod bearing is installed so that the bearing tab fits into the notch in the connecting rod. Coat the connecting rod bearing with clean engine oil. Position the connecting rod onto a journal of the crankshaft.
Install the lower half of the connecting rod bearing on connecting rod cap (2). Ensure that the connecting rod bearing is installed so that the bearing tab fits into the notch in the connecting rod cap. Coat the connecting rod bearing with clean engine oil.Note: The number that is on the side of the connecting rod caps must be installed next to the corresponding number that is on the side of the
