: My rebuild is almost complete on my '28 AR engine, and I find out my machine shop, in central Ohio can't deal with the Babbit style main bearings.
: I can't leave the old ones in with all those bright shiny new, and expensive, parts.
: Does anyone know of a modern type bearing which could be used instead?
: Your assistance is appreciated

Flash back to postings as of July 9th, or thereabouts, for remarks concerning the use of babbitted bearings versus modern-day insert bearings.E-mail me if you're confused.
