هل بلوك m50 مصنوع من الحديد ؟

[@ristosorri301]

can you remove and re-install pistons from underneath? without removing the cylindet head?

[@fidelistaasika6908]

Are those m54 pistons with m50 rods?

[@dasmiley]

at 19:31, which cap is the larger bearing cap? is it the 2nd one from the rear of the engine block?

[@Purpose_Built]

Yes! 2nd from the rear has the thrust bearing.

[@Ezrvdu]

Is there a reason you kept the piston rings on the piston when you measured the bore?

[@Purpose_Built]

Yeah actually, I found it a bit easier to square up the ring inside the bore. Took off the top ring for more depth

[@thomasmesselis6764]

Does that means bore x0.045”gap? Because i need it in metric and I need to convert it from inch to mm

[@Purpose_Built]

Yes you'll need to convert, here's some additional info, hope it helps! www.vtwinmfg.com/Instructions/MS/Wiseco%20Ring%20Ins%20Guide.pdf
