ha ha that is not what i meant.
I need to know the specs for the crankshaft end play in a 1.8L engine, BP.
And I need to know what (performance)-> brand of rod and main bearings would work good in an engine that will make more the 300 whp.
Thanks

The engine is out of the car and opened, that is how i checked the end play, i think that the crankshaft is good so can i just put in a new thrust bearing or all new bearings, why do i have to put in an over sized one? the engine has about 25,000 miles after rebuild.

Also, there's a $20 Haynes manaul available for your year car that has all the engine specs in it.

The engine has je oversized pistons, pauter rods, arp main caps. so i cant get a new one. and it has 25000 miles on it....is it too soon for it to have .020 end play?
I didnt buid it so i dont know if it was built right. so i have to take to an engine shop and have them fix the end play? i cant do it myself?

Check the actual allowance for a 1.8 before you do anything except pull out the old one. The spec MAY be more open.
