Mic the journals for undersize, uniform size and being round. Use plastigauge to check clearances, even after using a mic.

Hone the cylinders and use new rings and bearings, it will save you money in the long run.

If in doubt, it's always cheaper in the long run to have a machine shop or engine rebuilder do the work.

Take it to a engine place and get the bores honed , new bearing and let them fit the rings to the pistons and the pistons to the bore with new bearings to the short block stage !! . the number on the rod goes to the camshaft and there should be a triangle stamped on the piston that indicated the front so look for that and it will tell you which end is one !!

Hi I have a manual of all chrysler models if you need any send me a message with the model in question and see if I have it and the price certainly comes cheaper than anyone.
