[Fot] Fw: Rod and Main Bearings

[Jack Wheeler]

 Hi Bryan.  Just looking through one of my cabinets, I found a brand new set of Vandervell main bearings.  They are standard size, and still in the Vandervell box.  Let me know if these can help you.

  Old NOS Vandervell or REPCO, if you can find them, but they've pretty much dried up.Unless your rods are drilled for an oil squirter ie stock, the 4.2 Jaguar bearings fit the big-end & are somewhat available, plus you get 1 1/2 engines worth in a set.
The Kings seem OK but the thickness on some that I've checked have been a few 10ths off spec, so clearances may have to be adjusted.Also consider having them coated, I've used Polymer Dynamics in Texas for decades.HTH

Good Morning group, I'm looking to freshen up the TR 3 race car before we head up to the Kastner Cup  and was wondering what the best brand of Rod and Main Bearings there are out there?  
Thank You all in advance
