67/68/69 cuda dilemma
Ok well I went back out there today for a few minutes and since nothing is run in and developed wear patterns, the mains are going to stay. There isnt a whole lot of stress on those like there is on connecting rods.I cleaned the 4 sets of rod bearing surfaces and swapped 2 bearing halves around.
Almost for sure I might want to buy 1 pair of rod bearings. The rest the defects on the others are so minor and almost non existant I cannot get a finger nail in them. I have 4 new pairs that are still in boxes since I only mocked up the 4 corners. I will show these worst 2 to my machinest tomorrow morning. I have a pair in rock auto shopping cart, along with shocks for my pickup. So if I need to swap the one pair out, I will get a pair, and then these get mounted on the wall as a reminder of what NOT to do.
