Re: measuring engine bearings
ive built quite a few engines and that is defiantly a good read! Thats what i was going to suggest for the bearings, since you have a caliper, you can probably get your hands on a mic as well. This is the most accurate way to ensure your buying the correct sized bearings. I've always used ACLs, but i will use stock color coded bearings next time.

Re: measuring engine bearings

Re: measuring engine bearings
Because it's not accurate.
It gives me the wonderful options of measure from .002 or .015. I want .017. Yes, I'm a nit-picky bastard. |
