Had to wait for Porsche to get a new batch of girdle nuts made to get 5 more to make a set of 10, and then find time to start the build in earnest. Today I finally got a chance to Plastigage the main and thrust bearings, they dimensioned out perfectly so I can start to build the short block, will 'gage the rod bearings as well.
New girdle nuts, threads are plastic lined
Factory bearings. Top are marked with blue, bottom red, with unique part numbers.
