ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine includes a bearing cap (3) for positioning the crankshaft (40) within the cylinder block (1). Spacer sleeves (20), which are attached with the main bearing cap bolts (5), are provided with dowel pins (32) having free ends (33) extending therefrom. The free ends of the dowel pins are mated with pockets (34) formed on the inner surface of the reinforcement element. A hardenable material (38) is injected into the space formed between the dowel pins and the pockets so as to form a locked reinforcement element to each of the dowel pins.
