7Nov06 | Here's a pic of the Clevite .002 over rod bearing on the left vs. the Speed Pro bearing on the right. Notice the oil groove cut into the Speed Pro bearing. Since the Callies crank rod journals have a large radius, and Clevite bearings don't come with a bevel like the Speed Pro bearings, I had to have the Clevite bearings turned in a lathe to add the required bevel. |
