<< In this instance I would bet that the problem is with the
installation or something else (oil pump) rather than the bearings. >>
My very FIRST [ 1st ] thought was the same as David's & Bob's;
"installation", "clearance(s) [ or lack thereof] ]" , bad "grind" job,
etc., etc. !!!
<< Bearings today are run off a machine that is far more accurate and
consistent than the machinery of 50 years ago, and the materials are far
more consistent as well. >>
My information from a VERY high up Purchaser at Moss is that County
bearings ARE Made by Israelis [who by nature, are VERY fussy &
VERY accurate]. From the ones I have either met or had dealings
with, I would HAVE to agree !!
Like David, I have either DONE motors [ and other 'parts' ]or sold
parts for re-builds and have had ZERO problems !!
Alan, the racers I know ALL tear-down their motors after EVERY
"race meet" even if they have only competed ONCE for "the meet" !!
