Std. Rod Journal = 2.164"
The Crankshaft Main Bearing Journal closest to the Flywheel is Journal
# 1 and is the Thrust Bearing.
Std. Main Journals # 1, # 2, & # 3 = 2.164"
Std. Main Journal # 4 = 1.574"
Journal Bearings # 1 & 4 are one piece and install on the
Crankshaft
Journal Bearings # 2 & 3 are two piece and install in the case
halves
To determine if a 1200cc/1600cc case has been align bored, measure the outside
diameter of the rear main bearing shell:
If the case is Std. The dia = 2.559"
If the case has been bored + .020" The dia = 2.579"
If the case has been bored + .040" The dia = 2.599"
If the case has been bored + .060" The dia = 2.619"
If the case has been bored + .080" The dia = 2.639"
If you don’t have the one piece Rear Main Bearing Shell, you can
measure the thickness of one of the # 2 or # 3 Main bearing Halves.
(To use this method, you have to know if the Crankshaft the bearing
came from is: Std., .010", .020", etc. & adjust the
following dimensions accordingly).
If the Crankshaft is Std. The thickness of the # 2 or # 3
Bearing shell Half in a Standard Case = .2065"
If the case has been bored + .020" The Shell measures .2075"
If the case has been bored + .040" The Shell measures .2085"
If the case has been bored + .060" The Shell measures .2095"
If the case has been bored + .080" The Shell measures .2105"
To determine if a 1200cc/1600cc case thrust has been cut, measure
the width of the Case Rear Main Bearing Saddle:
If the Thrust Bearing is Std. The Width = 0.8655"
If the Thrust Bearing is - .040" The Width = 0.8255"
If the Thrust Bearing is - .080" The Width = 0.7855"
If you are trying to determine what oversize bearings to get for a
crankshaft and don't have immediate access to the case, but have the old
crankshaft complete with bearings, you can easily
determine if a 1200cc/1600cc case thrust has been cut, by measuring the
Thickness of the "Outer" Rear Main Bearing Thrust Flange:
If the thrust is Std.
The Outer Rear Thrust Flange thickness
is 0.0965"
If the thrust has been cut to -.040"
The Outer Rear Thrust Flange thickness is ...................................................................................................
