Cali III crankshaft/conrod co-axial clearance

Anybody able to share the knowledge on shimming the conrods on a crankshaft, as friend’s heart won’t find a peace until he’s sure about clearance/gap acceptable in his Cali III. Personally I don’t believe there are any shimms as there’s no way to put them there, but… a peace of mind is a great thing to have.

You wouldneed to refer to the full workshop manual for the information.
Here’s one giving crank imensions, but no sign of any shims


Done a few motors over the years and never seen a shim👍

Ditto, have never heard of shimming big-ends! In any motor anywhere! :open_mouth:
