bearings
I have a 30 page booklet published by GM themselves. It describes how to install precision MAIN bearings into 1937 to 48 Chev 216 engines . The precision bearings became available around 1948 , these were to be retrofitted into the earlier engines instead of going through the costly line boring process as described in the manuals.
At Corowa years ago, Uptons had boxes of Chev precision main bearings the local GMH NASCO brand . I bought quite a few of them but I havent been able to work out which years they fit . I have .030 and .040 sizes . I will take a few pics Mike
