Yes i putting my crank back in the block because of a rebuild and i was wondering if theres anything i have to do to make sure the crank is lined up properly for piston travel.
It has one big thrust bearing in the middle . I think that this thrust bearing lines it up just right. But just was wondering about precautions i should take? Its is a 6 bolt 4g63 turbo.
 
what machine work did you have done?there are several things to take into account to ensure the motor stays together.the main thing is the thrust bearing and it has to be centered.you need .002 to .004 clearance between the crank and bearing.
