Sorry John, I forgot to put in all the info you need, so here goes:  Kawasaki model FH 680V-CS01-ZZ
                      S/N FH 680V-B05734
 This pertains to my previous question. I am in the process of overhauling a Kawasaki 23hp vertical shaft engine, buthave been unable to locate crankshaft bearings/bushings for this engine. Any ideas?  Thanks Bill

Answer
Hello Again Bill:

LOL. I Just Asked for this Information in your Last E-Mail. Thanks. The Engine Sump (Oil Pan) and Cylinder Block are a Machined Fit for the Crankshaft to Fit and Use Oil from the Crankcase to Lubricate the Crankshaft like the Bearings in an Automotive Engine. There are No Bearings/Bushings to Replace. You can View a Breakdown of the Engine at this Site Addy; http://www.buykawpower.com/kmcb2c/main.jsp and Select View Parts Catalog. Then Select 4 Stroke Engines. Then Select Page 2 of the Engine Listings. Then Select the FH 680V-SO1 File. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck

Respectfully

John
