Apply a thin coating of RHODORSEAL 5661 to the
supports on bearings 1 and 5 without blocking the oil
return on the sump seals.
Screw the 12 mm centering studs (G) (span 1.50) in
to the cylinder block.
Fit the bearings.
Oil the two seals.
Use two steel shims placed either side of the bearing
cap.
Lower the whole assembly.
When the bearing is almost in place, make sure that
the side seals protrude slightly over the cylinder block
on the pressure face side.
Remove the shims and the studs.
Cut the side seals so that they protrude 0.5 to 0.7 mm
in relation to the sump gasket face.
Check that the crankshaft rotates freely.
