first build for the Evo
hey yall, i just wanna let you know that this is my first build for my evo. I got it brand new and its never been taken apart. I have already gotten the engine out and the head, transmission, intake manifold etc.. is coming off this weekend.I will post up pictures as soon as i transfer the photos to my pc. I'm going with the JE standard pistons and getting new bearings. Do i buy standard bearings if I leave the bore size, head, and rods all standard? My machinist told me that i need to send the block to him so he could measure the crank and rods for the bearing size that i need.. Im a little confused about this situation. So if you could help me out a little, i would appreciate it thx

Bearings dont have any effect from bore size. Bearings are inbetween the rods to crank, crank to block, and I dont know if theres bearings on the cams to the head. Piston ring size will be different for a overbored cylinder. But if your doing a 'build' a machinist should def take a look.
