    Hi all
    I have all new bearings for the crank and rods for my 20v
    I want to check the clearances and have some KS plastigage.
    After searching around i cant see any info saying if i check with the original shells or the new ones ?
    What would you suggest ?
    Thanks

    You check with the bearing shells you fit on the engine-new ones.
