Today was D day for bearings.
I have been putting it off for a while as it is a tedious task at the best of times.
The main bearings were superb not that I expected anything untoward given that the engine was quiet when I stripped it.
Given that the car will eventually be sold I wanted to make sure that all would be well in the future.
New main bearings fitted.
I chose NE bearings which are of German origin and manufacture
A closer look of the visible big end bearings equally shows no concerns.
Fitted a set of big ends from agents as those are specifically designed for the S engines and aftermarket do not go to the same lengths as OE design.
everything changed and now need to do final torque however did not have my angle torque with me so it shall wait for tomorrow.
not that that is an option of course
