How do I tell if the engine is one of the ones with the AU crank/bearings + head? Being a NZ '98 I'm not sure if that means it is or isn't. Engine numbers? Head stamp maybe?

Will make a big bearing if I recon my spare engine or recon the EL Wagon engine?

Thanks for that, my spare engine is indeed a 'hybrid'. I guess I need to track down specs and part numbers and torque settings etc... now.

Am I on the right track here?

Am I correct in assuming that 67.481/67.505 is tolerance for the shaft for mains? If so what is 2.6567/2.6577?

Also the conrod bearings are same as pre hybrid engine?
