Bearing Selection for 112 and 611

[deepakdbhatia]

Hi,
After reading the WIS I am highly confused about selection of crankshaft bearings with a slightly worn crankshaft.
As it is the procedure for the diesel and petrol is different. To top it all the repair sizes of crankshaft for 611 do not have matching bearing sizes to maintain oil clearance.
Any help will be appreciated.

I trust that you are getting the crank re ground

Machine Shop Advice.

As Ian says the bearing size you select depends on how much is ground off the crank. Any good reputable engine machine shop will be able to advise you on oversize bearing shells. Just make sure they are of OEM quality and you should be fine. Try the Crewe engines website more more info.http://www.creweengines.co.uk/car_engines.asp
