Install the crankshaft
Lubricate the top main bearing with TC-W3 outboard oil and set it on the top journal. Set the crankshaft into the block and align the connecting rods.
Next, install the caps on their rods, orienting them the same way as you found them. Place the locking washers on the screws, and then screw on the caps until they're just snug. Then torque them up using an inch/lb reading torque wrench to 35 inch/lbs first, then 50 inch/lbs, and finally 65 inch/lbs. Do not attempt to use a ft/lb reading wrench since they are woefully inaccurate at these lower settings.
Bend over the locking tabs on the washers with a punch so the screws cannot possibly back off.
