Engine Buildup: The little stuff 2 motivations behind this thread.
first, to get a list of stuff/part numbers in one place for those interested in building their own motor.
and second, i'm build a motor and want to know <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">
We all know you need the big stuff, block, crank, pistons, rods, heads, cam.
but how about the little stuff. gaskets, fasteners, bearings, rings, etc.
first off, i know ARP is making main and head fasteners now
http://www.arp-bolts.com
head studs
hex nuts - 234-4110
12-point - 234-4316
main studs
234-5608
what have people used for bearings, mains and rods? Cam?
For the new multilayer head gaskets in '02, same for both heads.
12565390 for 5.7L
12565391 for 4.8/5.3L
12565392 for 6.0L
anybody else? <img src="images/icons/cool.gif" border="0"> <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

Re: Engine Buildup: The little stuff Rod bearings are Small Block Chevy, take your pick. In my case,
Clevite 77
CB663P
I got GM main & cam bearings due to availability, but they cost about 3 times what you should pay even from a discount dealer.
GM:
88890525 Front 4 main bearings
12369542 Rear main
(I don't have the boxes from the cam brgs, those
were installed by the machine shop)
ARP & Katech have rod bolts, if you're using a stock rod.
Katech:
A2236
