How To Install Clevite 77 Chevrolet High-Performance Main Bearings

It is critical that all main bearings are in the correct position and orientation prior to installation. All bearings and surfaces must be extremely clean for proper installation. The main caps must also be in the proper order and orientation. Place the upper bearings into the block. Then position the crankshaft into place. Next, assemble and torque the main caps to the proper sequence and specification. To check the clearances with Plastigauge, start with one of the main caps by removing it. Wipe off assembly oil on the crankshaft with a lint-free cloth or paper towel. Then place the Plastigauge over the center of the journal surface and reinstall the bearing cap, torquing the bolts to specification. Again, remove the main cap, revealing the crushed Plastigauge material. Using the gauge and scale included with the Plastigauge kit, compare the measurement to your engine's specifications. If you are within specification, you can complete finally assembly of the crankshaft. If you are not within specification, the main journals, main bearings, and crankshaft need to be measured to determine which component is out of specification so that it can be corrected.
