When is the best time to measure the end play during an engine rebuild, before or after installation of the cylinders and pistons, or doesn't it matter?
Thanks |

I do it when I am ready to install the flywheel.
You can measure it whenever you like, but you cannot set it until you have the flywheel installed. I tend to install the flywheel early to help me turn things easier and lock down the crankshaft when needed. For me, the flywheel gets installed soon after the case is bolted together and before the Pistons and cylinders......just so I have something to grab onto. |
