VALVE TIMING
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - VALVE TIMING
VERIFICATION
(1) Remove front cylinder head cover and all 6
spark plugs.
(2) Rotate engine until the #2 piston is at TDC of
the compression stroke.
(3) Install a degree wheel on the crankshaft pulley.
(4) With proper adaptor, install a dial indicator
into #2 spark plug hole. Using the indicator find TDC
on the compression stroke.
(5) Position the degree wheel to zero.
(6) Remove dial indicator from spark plug hole.
(7) Place a 5.08 mm (0.200 in.) spacer between the
valve stem tip of #2 intake valve and rocker arm pad.
Allow tappet to bleed down to give a solid tappet
effect.
(8) Install a dial indicator so plunger contacts the
#2 intake valve spring retainer as nearly perpendic-
ular as possible. Zero the indicator.
(9) Rotate the engine clockwise until the intake
valve has lifted .254 mm (0.010 in.).
CAUTION: Do not turn crankshaft any further clock-
wise as intake valve might bottom and result in
serious damage.
(10) Degree wheel should read 6 degrees BTDC to
6 degrees ATDC.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - MEASURING
TIMING CHAIN WEAR
NOTE: This procedure must be performed with the
timing chain cover removed (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
VALVE TIMING/TIMING CHAIN COVER - REMOVAL).
(1) Position a scale next to timing chain so that
any movement of chain may be measured (Fig. 132).
(2) Position a torque wrench and socket on the
camshaft sprocket attaching bolt. Apply force in the
direction of crankshaft rotation to take up slack to
the following torque:
²41 N´m (30 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads installed
²20 N´m (15 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads removed
NOTE: With torque applied to the camshaft
sprocket bolt, crankshaft should not be permitted to
move. It may be necessary to block crankshaft to
prevent rotation.
(3) Holding a measuring scale along edge of chain
links (Fig. 132).(4) Apply force in the reverse direction to the fol-
lowing torque:
²41 N´m (30 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads installed
²20 N´m (15 ft. lb.) with cylinder heads removed
(5) Measure amount of sprocket/chain movement.
(6) Install a new timing chain and sprockets if
movement exceeds 3.175 mm (1/8 in.).

not damage the main bearings or journals when
removing the crankshaft.
(23) Remove the target ring mounting screws and
discard.
(24) Remove the target ring from the crankshaft.
INSPECTION
For crankshaft specifications (Refer to 9 - ENGINE
- SPECIFICATIONS).
The crankshaft journals should be checked for
excessive wear, taper and scoring (Fig. 4). Limits of
taper or out of round on any crankshaft journals
should be held to 0.025 mm (0.001 in.). Journal
grinding should not exceed 0.305 mm (0.012 in.)
under the standard journal diameter. DO NOT grind
thrust faces of No. 3 main bearing. DO NOT nick
crank pin or bearing fillets. After grinding, remove
rough edges from crankshaft oil holes and clean out
all passages.
CAUTION: With the nodular cast iron crankshafts, it
is important that the final paper or cloth polish be
in the same direction as normal rotation in the
engine.
INSTALLATION - CRANKSHAFT
CRANKSHAFT MAIN BEARING LOCATION
The crankshaft is supported in five main bearings.
All upper bearing shells in the crankcase have oil
grooves and holes. All lower bearing shellsexcept
for the thrust bearing half have oil grooves and holes
(Fig. 5). Crankshaft end play is controlled by a
flanged bearing on the number three main bearing
journal.

(1) Install the main bearing upper shells with the
lubrication groove and oil hole in the engine block
(Fig. 6).
(2) Make certain oil holes in block line up with oil
hole in bearings and bearing tabs seat in the block
tab slots.
NOTE: If the crankshaft is sent out for machine
work, it must be balenced as an assembly with the
target ring installed.
(3) Clean crankshaft and target ring with
MOPARtbrake parts cleaner and dry with com-
pressed air to ensure that the crankshaft mating sur-
face and target ring mounting holes are free from oil
and lock patch debris.
NOTE: Always use NEW mounting screws whether
installing original or new target ring.
(4) InstallNEWmounting screws finger tight
starting with the #1 location. (Fig. 7) Make sure
engagment occurs with the shoulder of the screw and
mounting hole before starting all other screws.
(5) Torque all mounting screws with T30 torx bit
to 13 Nm (110 in-lbs) following the torque sequence.
CAUTION: Use extreme care when handling crank-
shaft. Tone wheel damage can occur if crankshaft is
mis-handled.
CAUTION: Do not get oil on the bed plate mating
surface. It will affect the ability of the sealer to seal
the bed plate to cylinder block.(6) Oil the bearings and journals. Install crank-
shaft in the engine block.
CAUTION: Use only MoparTBed Plate Sealant on
the bed plate or damage may occur to the engine.
(7) Install lower main bearings into main bearing
cap/bed plate. Make certain the bearing tabs are
seated into the bed plate slots and apply oil.
(8) Apply 1.5 to 2.0 mm (0.059 to 0.078 in.) bead of
MopartBed Plate Sealant to bed plate as shown in
(Fig. 8).
