Packard Twelve Fan, Why are you being so hard on poured babbitt rod bearings? I had a model A ford so equipped and drove the heck out of it. Granted it would barely do 55, 60 with a good tail wind, but I never had any trouble with the rods. I think if the clearance is set correctly you shouldn't have to worry much.
