Ok it 1 am in spokane wa, and finally got cool enough to work without being in a puddle of sweat!
So I slid under my 2010 pw again and started pulling main caps on my 5.7. Every main or rod I have ever pulled in my 25 year career as a master tech was stamped with a size. This main has numbers but doesn't tell me if it is oversize, undersize, or standard. What is the best way to tell if I have the correct bearings? I don't think the motor has ever been open, but I have only had it the last 20k.
I got standard bearings and they are stamped as such on the back but the ones I'm pulling have no info. All they say is D18 (or B) Y A22E. Anyone have any idea? Or best way to check? Don't have a bearing micrometer (may be able to pull a digital caliper hiding someplace) and don't want to make a 5k guess!
HELP! LOL
