Default Re: bearing insert identification help...

Im going to say that dippers are the fastest way to get oil to the rod bearing,then they lose the 'fight' when pressure builds..if that adds up its a good idea then,figure the oil under pressure would have to counter act the dipper 'pressure' so the leakage of pressurized oil wouldnt be that bad,.if that makes sense.

My B is an early,home made counterweights on the crank (quality weldons),big ends of the rods turned down,sleeved .080 over..cam is a fuel pump lobe B,appears to be unground yet has only .270 total lift..engine had a Winfield red head but the PO took it off and sold it before I got the rest..check out the rod...



interesting huh?
