Thanks for the info. I bought one of the matching
main bearings with the crank, but the other was not
avaliable. I am planning on bringing the mains to the
shop and having them size them as needed. Their
books only listed rod bearings and no mains. I am
crossing my fingers that we will be able to use what I
have and adjust with the shims, but I want to know
where to go if I can not use what is already here.
