Short block assembly help needed (rings and bearing install)


Recommended Posts

My machine shop has finished boring my aaa block to 82mm

They have cut my crank and line bored my main journals.

They told me to use standard size bearings for rods and mains.

Have calico coated glyco bearings along with new thrust washers.

New intermediate shaft bearings have been installed.

Is there Anything else that I need to do after I install bearings and torque them to spec?

Also what else is there to do when I slide the pistons in with new rings? I know I will have to file them to the correct gap but is there another measurement that I need to take once they are installed?

I'm asking for a lot but I have put way to much money into the motor to ruin it. This is the first time I have gone this in depth with a VR6.

Any info or advice will be greatly appreciated!

Thank you
