Howdy folks, I have just had my Canadian C1BA flathead machined and it is time to source some rings & bearings. Any suggestions where I can order online some quality rings & bearings for this honey?

Its a little late now, but with vintage motors with questionable parts supply one should always measure the block, find parts that will work with your measurements, then machine to fit those parts into your block.

That said looking up a 1949 ford on Rockauto they have everything you need in all over/undersizes from many brands. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/...1339770,engine
