I'd like to do a dry run on my lower end assembly to check main bearing clearances with Plastigauge. I assume I can just bolt it up and torque it down using only the main bearing saddle bolts, with no sealant, to get a reading. It's a 3.0 six. Is this correct?
Thanks, Randy |

Case been align bored? Crank been turned? Measured? I see no reason to plastigauge the mains unless you reasonably suspect a problem. If you do decide to measure it that way, remember not to turn the crank when you're doing it. The Cap'n
