Watch the sizing though, Clevites HAVE NOT been the most consistent bearing over the last few years. Good news is you can oversize or undersize and split bearing sizes very easily with the BBC stuff.

H bearings are unforgiving if your pushing the edge. You can chamfer any bearing yourself with an old rod and a lathe. Last edited by Mike Swann; 07/03/12 06:50 PM. 8.30's @3400 lbs
