.020 crank (main engine) bearings impossible to find

B230F 8-valve .020 main engine bearings are non-existent, according to FCP Groton. I checked IPD, and a dozen other stores. Looks like I may have to go to the dealer and pay $167.



If anyone knows of another place, that would be great. I have checked every part store I could Google online and most all use the same distributor.

Hey Jamie - try this place - - I think they may have them.

Good luck! AC

Thanks, I checked but they only show standard size. We are checking with the machine shop to see if we need twice oversize (.020) for both the rod and crank. If only the rod then I am in business and can go with the smaller bearing (.010).

Thanks again.

Looks like German Auto Parts in Florida

had the bearings. Still, $113 for the set was not fun!

Time and beer will help that, too ;-)
