Wayne Berry here. Hope I am not imposing too much. I am particularly interested in the replacement of the poured main bearings as I have one of these engines which is finished if I have to get the bearings re-poured. I take it that the bearings were standard I/D Princess mains shells of ???inches sliced into two halves with journals ground to suit - a part No. would be good if you have one. Noting the retainer notches, was the block line bored to suit the O/S diameter of the Princess shells. Will appreciate any info you can help with. Great video!!! Wayne

Hey Wayne, Ash answered your question in this weeks video ruclips.net/video/10MZvoSVvtw/видео.html
Very cool as i have the 50/51 Ford V8 flaty in a F100
Looking forward to seeing what was wrong, con rods, bearings or Ash 😂
I’m still trying to find out if anybody has ever made a 5 journal crank for the flathead.
