Default bearings and piston rings

hi ppl

im going to be changing piston rings and main bearings and big end bearings but iv noticed that there are different sizes, will the sizes for the piston rings be on the piston and will the size for bearings be on the crank.

The pistons should have

Std, or +0.25, or +0.50 or + 1mm


the shells will have.

Std, or -0.25 or -0.50mm.


if not your have to measure the bore's, and crank.


Also while your doing it, change the oil pump.
