Main Bearings
Using hole gauge and micrometer (or plastigage method), measure all main bearing inserts I.D. and crank journals O.D. to check insert-to-journal clearances. Maximum clearance is no more than 0.006" (.16 mm). Grind crankshaft and replace bearing inserts as necessary.
NOTE:
New design main bearings have additional oil ports at bearing split line. These bearings may be used in 1984 and later vehicles.
