Default Re: Source for Babbitt

Ford used babbitt with an assay of;

86% tin
7% copper
6.5% antimony

Most babbitt suppliers call this Genuine Ford Babbitt.

1930 Coupe is right, if you have never done this, you have a long expensive learning curve ahead and the tooling for line boring will cost anywhere from 3,000 to 10,000$ not to mention the pouring mandrils.
