 '''CRANK AND CRANKCASE STUFF'''
-The first thing to note is that the 1994 VIN Z engine has two bold mains. That means the main caps have only two bolts a piece. The next oddity I noted is with the numbering of mains and the rods. The mains have an arrow pointing forward and all different casting numbers but no specific locator or identification. So I will see where to add one with my machine shop. The next thing was the rods as I found the letters F-F, J-J, G-G stamped on them. Seems they are paired. Will see tomorrow what the logic is. As I want to keep them exactly in location I will number them as well to keep the sets properly together.
