Can't get anything past your, eh ! Always thinking which is good for a young man . Haven't gotten to the center custom cap yet and think that there is no reason now, to disturb it as all looks excellent. The old man put center bearing thrusts in. He did very nice work, IMO. Question: They now make/sell those asbestos/copper washers/fillers that go between the nuts and block, to prevent oil leaks. Have any of you used these(one time use) and do you recommend their usage ? Or is that a waste of $/time |

Re: bearing insert identification help...
Rick,
those main bearing inserts in rear sure look like 1055G inserts from Datsun. pull the center and front mains, more than likely same inserts but narrowed up J

What do you figure is the minimal crank movement for a B...front to back ? Is there a 'worry' if none is perceived ?? |

Yeah, I'll most likely follow that advice. Is there a 'chart' of some kind to convert a bearing shell number to different makes(numbers) with SAME dimensions ? |

Re: bearing insert identification help...
Rick,
I have never seen one for the numbers stamped on the shells. Once you know the number it is easy to cross mfgrs. more than likely the housing bore in the block is 2.146, if so it is the datsun if it is larger, 2.162 it is a perkins/buda diesel. there are a number of different ones as the application is not specific. I also think there is a triumph application that gets used often. In looking at the pics again, the radius fillet on the crank is too small, my opinion for anything more than a touring motor. J

Re: bearing insert identification help...
Hard times,
To answer your original question, call Max Hermans at H&H and ask him. As indicated by the MAX in yellow letters on the crank counter weight H&H is the builder of the engine. That plus the fact the thrust is on the center main. Wm J. |

Well, that is interesting. Enough so, that I might call him. I did not examine that yellow paint on crank closely enough to come up with that name. Has that been a standard marking system for them, if you know If true, that might explain the skinny radius. On the other hand, he would know about the bearing shells used, if his work, and that would be good...thanks. But, he/they may know nothing, but sold the old man the crank. Not too long ago, I contacted him about a marked cam, that I got(have now) from a guy who bought it from them. I called up the business and he told me that he hasn't made a cam like that for years. True, the guy who I got it from, bought it in 80s. Maybe just let that sleeping dog stay sleeping,eh ! Ya know that life IS strange. Yesterday, I visited a guy who volunteered to test a part for me. While there, two other guys showed. We talked A/B engine, cars, etc... One of these two guys was helping us pressure check parts....and stated that he has taken his newly rebuilt B engine back there two/three times for rework, bummer. He gave up on that B and is now looking for another for his roadster. What a coincidence, hm. Last edited by hardtimes; 01-14-2018 at 11:38 PM. Reason: ................. |
