Default Re: Babbitt vs Inserts

IMHO there aren't many around that really know how to pour babbit. If the babbit gets too thick because the crank has been turned I don't think that is good either. Anyone else agree? When I had a motor built it was built with inserts on mains and rods. Inserts need machine work knowledge which I believe is more widespread than babbit knowledge.
