Russell - This is indeed a volatile topic that I will not debate, however, I will add two comments - first, I have firsthand knowledge of a project underway to provide new 35-39 style insert bearings with the original style flange. This is the first publicity leak on this project (and I mean new, within the last 30 days), contact me directly if you are considering going this route. Anyone else interested in new Original style bearings is invited to contact me as well. There will be no never ending "waiting list" for this project. The bearings will be available, period. No stories.
The second comment is I happen to have a set of uncut original rods for this original (later style) insert bearing. It is my rods and original bearings that are being used to validate this new production. flackmaster@sbcglobal.net directly please.
This oughta' to stir the (babbit) pot....
