Starts have a knocking sound around 3k rpm my neighbor says it's the crankshaft bearings so we took off the exhaust manifold and dropped the oil pan and the bearings were loose so now I need to know what size are they so I can order them

Actually you have to measure the wear of the crankshaft and you might need to have the crankshaft refaced and new bearings fitted.

If you are only thinking of replacing the bearings, at the rear of the bearings there should be indications of the size and if none are present, then it is standard.
