    Yes the bearings worked good!! Put them in Friday afternoon and drove it to a a car show that night in Manchester thanks to Brent I'm so glad I checked them one more pass and I woulda had a 4g63 paperweight. Called Napa today and they said the ACL race bearings are on backorder so no telling when I will have em...

    I'm going to build a bracket on the engine to lock down the filter so engine harmonics wont shake it loose again in the future!

    Any reason you are switching to ACL? I usually suggest people to go with a bearing that breaks down instead of the rods or crank.

    I started using them a few years back when we were having crank walk problems maybe a softer bearing would be more beneficial in these circumstances i know the ones i took out were acl standards and not race because they had that aluminum coating that the race ones don't. You have a good point and if they might have been the hard bearing they may have spun i have CLEVITES in there now
