Re: Babbit job
Looking for someone in the Wisconsin area to do Babbitting.
I bought a 29 Model A 2 years ago with 2 engines and I am having fun. One engine works OK and I am able to tour. The other one I sent to my local engine rebuilder to rebuild, balance, and have it perfect. After 1 year and Covid he cannot find a Babbitt tech. The one he did use in Wausau, WI is retired. He cannot find another firm to just install Babbitt. Seems like others on the forum back in 2013 had success with inserts, My mechanics sells he is hearing horror stories with inserts! I am at a loss! I wanted to get the new motor perfect and sell the old one. Anyone have direction please!
