Default Re: Oil grooves

Brent, thanks for sending the drawings ! Do you have ‘m for the middle and front mains also ? And, if it’s not too much trouble ... the big end bearings ?

Going through the trouble of pulling the engine in a - what I believed - freshly restored car, is urging to do things right this time.

Is there any proof early bearings didn’t have grooves (my engine is early 29) ? The engine ran about three hours and I can spot some wear already (the shiny spots).
What would you do ? Put grooves in or not ?

Thx for the help,

Henk
For about three hours in total
