[Christoph]

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, your experience
and your expert knowledge.

I really appreciate your help.

Ja – as mentioned earlier, a reuse of the Babbitts would have
lead to “just a spare-engine”.

As I doubt now, that the outcome (using old Babbitts) will justify
the input and work, i got to find another solution with new bearings.

For sure, I will respect your input regarding weight of parts, flywheel
and crank.

Thank you again for your help.
