Alright so after reading over the FSM numerous times and talking with the local infiniti dealership I have come to 2 conclusions..A) the parts guy at this dealership is worthless and B) I am super confused by the FSM on bearing selection. So after spending hours searching the internet I have come to nico to see if someone out there has the power to educate me on where I'm going wrong.

I'm in the EM section pg. 38 (adobe) and the numbers I have on my block for fig 1 are 2222
3222 33323

On the crank (fig 2) I have 1222
11012

I have no identifying marks or any colors. I've been staring at this table (which is mocking me) for about 3 days now and can't figure it out, plus it doesn't have anything stating what is standard, undersized, ect. I'm getting ready to just forget the numbers and go to town with my mic, but thats a last ditch effort since it will take that much more time. So could someone please enlighten me on how to read this table? I would really appreciate it and thank you in advance!

The colors are respectively:

Brown, Green, Green, Green

Brown, Brown, Black, Brown, Green

I can get you part numbers if you know what year Q your VH came out of.

That would be awesome if you could assist with part numbers! Do you work at a dealership? If so I would be more than happy to order them from you if you can ship them. The VH is out of a 91 Qt. So how did you get the colors out of the casting numbers and what does each color represent?

The guy at the dealership is a lazy moron. I say that because if he uses the "right" software it would tell him what you need.

Alright for the main journal your numbers are: 44335. Please disregard the colors I said previously.

So the part numbers you need are listed in order: 2X: 12207-60U04- 2X: 12207-60U03- 1X: 12207-60U05- These are for the main bearings. But please get a second opinion on this.

Not sure yet on the rod bearing size part numbers. But I am sure its right there in front of me.
