I have a few books, looking for all the info I can get. Believe it or not this engine came out of a panel delivery that was running 30 years ago and has been kept inside dry location ever sense, not sure what happened to it in that time.

What do most people do reuse old bearings or just put new ones in?

I still have to measure and see what I have. From info I found on van pelt web site I should be looking for a measurement of no less then 0.1085 for the connecting rod bearings.
