Katech 427 Short Block Engine

Crank journal roundness is checked at Katech not with a caliper, but a sophisticated air tool that uses air pressure to provide a more accurate "picture" of the journals' dimensions. In the case of the Value Short-Block's 4.00-inch crank, the rod journals need to come in between 2.0989 and 2.0994 inches, while mains' spec range is between 2.5590 and 2.5595 inches.
