If only Dolomite engines had their main bearings supported like that!

I didn't see him put any thrust bearings in!

Thrust bearings are allready on the centre bearing like the rover V8
GOOD vid
But when you torque the rod bolts up you should use a feeler gauge between the crank and rod to stop the rod twisting and bruising the bearing if any of you should be attempting a 10 min build :lol:
