Bolt tightening sequence for the main bearing capsNote: Ensure that the word "FRONT" that is on the end of the crankshaft is toward the front of the engine.
Attach Tooling (B) and a suitable lifting device to each end of crankshaft (7) . The weight of the 3508B crankshaft is approximately 398 kg (877 lb). The weight of the 3512B crankshaft is approximately 590 kg (1300 lb). The weight of the 3516B crankshaft is approximately 800 kg (1764 lb). Position the crankshaft in the cylinder block.
Place clean engine oil on thrust plates (8) . Install thrust plates (8) on each side of the center main bearing.
Install the lower half of the main bearing in the main bearing cap. Ensure that the main bearing is installed so that the bearing tab fits into the notch in the main bearing cap (6) . Coat the main bearing with clean engine oil.
Coat the underside of the bolt heads and the threads of bolts (5) with clean engine oil. Position main bearing caps (6) and install the bolts and washers. Do not tighten the bolts at this time.Note: The main bearing caps must be installed with the word "FRONT" and the part number toward the front of the engine. Each main bearing cap has a number on the bottom surface and each main bearing must be installed in the corresponding position in the cylinder block.
Tighten bolts (5) in sequence to a torque of 190 14 N m (140 10 lb ft).
Place an index mark on the bolts and the main bearing cap. Tighten the bolts for an additional 180 5 degrees (1/2 turn).
Rotate the crankshaft in order to ensure that the crankshaft turns freely.
Use Tooling (D) to measure the end
