thoughts on main bearing Babbitt ??

[Keith True]

I think this discussion has been going around forever.About 20 years ago I was in the shop of the guy that used to do my babbitt,(long since passed) and he and another customer were discussing this.The customer had all kinds of theories,opinions,articles,and probably anything published on it from the last 50 years.The man was very thorough,and presented it all very well,and when he was done George told him,I will pour it any way you would like,but the only one I will stand behind is the way I do it.
