I currently have the DMS 2.2 Crank kit with the Vandervel(?) bearings. Non cross drilled crank. If I have my crank cross drilled then where would I find the correct bearings? Where would I find information about the cross drilling for the machine shop?

I'm putting the doors, hood, trunk lid and windshield-frame back on my car so I can take it to my body and paint guy. Once it is out of my garage I plan to start on the 5 speed conversion and 2.2 engine conversion. I still need to collect the sealants and lubricants for the re-assembly of the engine and get my notes better organized so far as what order to do this in and what specs to use and not use. The gasket sets I have are very old. I'm concerned as to whether I should use them. I am thinking of purchasing all new gaskets including following Tim's advice about the later Esprit Turbo head gasket by Goetze.

Thanks,
