Dorien:
> If the rod journals are 1.7705 inches dia. (45 mm) the bearings are 1300 cc Alfa Guilietta which I have found to be hard to get in recent years. The MG T-series engine has the same size rod bearings, but they are not Indium lead. However, I have used them and they have held up OK. As I recall, the bearing width is correct for the small-nose crank, but has to be narrowed by 2.5mm. for the big-nose crank.
