Connecting Rod Installation


Apply the molybdenum base lubricant (Part # CRL 100) under the head of the bolt and on the threads.


With the bolts installed hand tight, install the guage and zero the dial indicator. The stretch guage must fit into the dimples on each end of the bolt.


Alternating from one side of the rod to the other, tighten the bolts.
DO NOT STAMP THE ROD NUMBERS ON THE RODS! ETCH THE NUMBERS. STAMPING WILL DISTORT THE ROUNDNESS!
