Crank thrust washers.

Quad, Thanks for clearing that up...the 3.2 cases arrived & the first thing I did was drop the crank in the thrust half...set up my clock gauge & he presto 006" end float...but to my disgust the main bearings in the M96/21 cases have the locating tang on the opposite side of the shell...M96/20 on the left...M96/21 on the right...so I have to by another 14 new bearings.

On stripping yet again my crank case I have found ATF & assembly fluid seeping out from 6 of the main bearing housing...between the steel insert & the alloy casting on the bottom half of the assembly...on close inspection with a magnifying glass it looks like the insert has broken away from the casting... on checking on e-bay for second hand one,s I saw several which looked the same...anyone heard of this before.
