The crankshaft is forged steel and fillet rolled with induction hardened journals, which run in four bearings with clamped two layer bearing shells. The upper and lower shells of bearing number four are flanged, which limits the end float of the crankshaft. The main bearing caps are double bolted and cross bolted to increase the strength and rigidity of the engine block.
The rear main oil seal and retainer assembly is a one piece unit and is supplied with its own plastic fitting sleeve. The seal and retainer have two locating dowels and ten fixing bolts. In addition the retainer has a location for the crankshaft position sensor.
A torsional vibration crankshaft damper pulley is bolted to the front of the crankshaft.
