So...uhm...how did the alignment go when you put the crank adaptor hub back on?
(In the picture you posted earlier.)

....and what did you torque them to...since they aren't supposed to be taken out of the crank...

 

[DMAX]

Just a question, but...why did you remove the bedplate bolts after the rods were connected to the crank?
And if the bedplate wasn't already on...how did the crank not fall onto the floor when you installed the pistons and rods?

How do you think we installed the Rods and Pistons? We install them just like everybody else, with the block flipped over. I dont understand how it would fall out? And that picture of the bedplate was taken before the main bolts were put in. Then the bolts were put in, torqued to three stages and the block was turned over.

So...uhm...how did the alignment go when you put the crank adaptor hub back on?

....and what did you torque them to...since they aren't supposed to be taken out of the crank...

I don't understand the alignment question either? If you look at a picture of the timing tool being used it is pretty self explanatory. If the motor is timed properly and the block is right side up, than the alignment dowl on the rear crank adaptor goes straight up... and there are 6 bolts to line up... so it is kind of hard to screw it up....

And we torque them to the same specs as the balancer...
