[Healeys] County Water Pumps and engine bearings

[richard mayor]

I, and many other racers, had big problems with engine bearings from County
about 15 years ago. All the NOS bearings were disappearing.  That's why I made
a deal with ACL to have them do another run of OEM quality engine bearings...
rod and mains...... .010 and .020 sizes.  I had to buy a large quantity to get
them to do a run of each size.  I still have some left so if anyone on the
list needs some 6 cylinder rod or main bearings, lets me know. These are for
the 100-6 and 3000 engines . I do not have any bearings for the 4 cylinder
engines.
