Hello -

So I've started my first engine rebuild and I have a question:
I have a 73 2.0 litre 914.
On the crankshaft bearings, are there supposed to be small dowel pins holding the bearings in place? The Haynes manual shows a diagram with the dowels but they aren't mentioned in the reassembly directions. The dowels ( 4 total ) should be about 5 mm diameter by 8 mm long.

Do I need them?
What's the correct size?
And where can I get some!?

Thanks for your help!

Cheers
