MAIN BEARING CAP
Temporarily install the 8 main bearing cap bolts to the inside positions.





Insert the main bearing cap by hand until the clearance between the main bearing cap and the cylinder block is less than 6 mm (0.23 in.) by marking the 2 internal bearing cap bolts as a guide.
Bolt length 100 to 102 mm (3.94 to 4.02 in.)





Using a plastic hammer, lightly tap the bearing cap to ensure a proper fit.
Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads and under the heads of the 8 main bearing cap bolts.





Install the 8 main bearing cap bolts to the outside positions.
Bolt length 105.5 to 107.5 mm (4.15 to 4.23 in.)





Install the crankshaft bearing cap bolts.

The main bearing cap bolts are tightened in 2 progressive steps.

Step 1
Install and uniformly tighten the 16 main bearing cap bolts in the sequence shown in the illustration.
Torque 61 N*m (622 kgf/cm, 45 ft. lbs.)
If any of the main bearing cap bolts does not meet the torque specified, replace it.





Step 2
Mark the front of the bearing cap bolts with paint.
Tighten the bearing cap bolts another 90° in the order above.
Check that the painted mark is now at a 90° angle to the front.





Install and uniformly tighten the 8 main bearing cap bolts in several steps and in the sequence shown in the illustration.
Torque 52 N*m (525 kgf/cm, 38 ft. lbs.)


CONNECTING ROD CAP
The connecting cap bolts are tightened in 2 progressive steps.





Step 1
Install and alternately tighten the bolts of the connecting rod cap in several steps.
Torque 25 N*m (255 kgf/cm, 18 ft. lbs.)





Step 2
Mark the front side of each connecting cap bolt with paint.
Tighten the cap bolts another 90° as shown in the illustration.
Check the painted mark is now at a 90° angle to the front.


CRANKSHAFT PULLEY
Torque 250 N*m (2,550 kgf/cm, 184 ft. lbs.)
