Re: Crank Bearing Problem
The correct way to pull the engine and take it apart. Then bring the parts to a good machine shop that can do Babbett and have new bearings poured and line bored.
The other way to find a good cap and fit it to the crank using the yellow Timesaver. This is best done with the engine out of the car. You will want to pull the crank and inspect the Babbett in the block before just replacing the cap.
A third option is to buy a Burtz kit and run that. If you have any mechanical aptitude you can assemble the Burtz kit yourself by just flowing his well written instructions.
