Salvage Cylinder Block Contact Surfaces"
1. Check the condition of the crankshaft main bearings. Refer to the Guideline For Reusable
Parts, SEBF8009, "Main and Connecting Rod Bearings" and Guideline For Reusable Parts,
SEBV0544, "Engine Bearings and Crankshafts".
Note: The number four main bearing in 3114 Engines is the thrust bearing. The number six
main bearing in the six cylinder engines is the thrust bearing.
2. Clean the bearing surfaces in the cylinder block for the main bearings.

3. Install the upper main bearings (4) in the cylinder block. Ensure that the tab on the back side
of the bearing engages with the groove in the cylinder block. Apply clean engine oil on the
upper main bearing. Do not put engine oil on the back side of the bearing surfaces.

Typical example
4. Put clean engine oil on the journals of the crankshaft bearing. Fasten lifting straps and a
hoist to crankshaft (1) . Carefully install the crankshaft in the cylinder block.
5. Clean the bearing surface of the main bearing caps.

6. Install the lower main bearings (5) in the crankshaft main bearing caps (3) . Ensure that the
tab on the back side of the bearing engages with the groove in the main bearing cap. Apply
clean engine oil on the lower main bearing. Do not put engine oil on the back side of the
bearing surfaces.
7. Install crankshaft main bearing caps with the bearing tabs on the same side. Ensure that
crankshaft main bearing caps have numbers 1 through 7. The numbers should start at the
front of the engine. Place clean engine oil or Molylube on the bolt threads and the washers.
Note: When the bolts for the rear main bearing cap are tightened, slide the main bearing cap
as far forward as possible until the cap is against the bolts. Hold the main bearing cap in this
position and tighten the bolts.
Illustration 4 g00609985
Typical example
8. Install bolts (2) and the washers for main bearing caps (3) . Tighten bolts (2) to a torque of
54 ± 7 N·m (40 ± 5 lb ft).
9. Turn bolts (2) for an additional 90 ± 5 degrees (1/4 turn).

End By:
a. Install the pistons and connecting rods. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Pistons and
Connecting Rods - Install".
b. Install the front gear group. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Gear Group (Front) -
Install".
c. Install the crankshaft seal carrier. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Crankshaft Rear
Seal Carrier- Remove and Install".
d. Install the cylinder head. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Cylinder Head - Install".

Removal Procedure
Start By:
a. Remove the front gear group. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Gear Group (Front) -
Remove".
NOTICE
Keep all parts clean from contaminants.
Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life.
Note: For information on reusability of the camshaft gear, refer to Guideline For Reusable Parts
And Salvage Operations, SEBF8045, "Timing Gears for All Engines".
1. Place alignment marks on the crankshaft gear and on the crankshaft. The alignment marks
will ensure that the camshaft gear is aligned properly during installation.
