HE SEZ:
Thank you for all the advice and suggestions. I took the center
bearing cap off this weekend and sure enough, the bearing is
down to the copper. So now that I know the bearings need to be
replaced, does anybody have know of a way to do this without
removing the engine? I really don't want to take it out as it
gets a bit frustrating, this will be the third time that I've had
to move an engine out of and into a car, with a skidloader for
a hoist. :-; The reason that I was told for removing the engine
is because the front and back engine plates have to be removed
before the front and back bearing caps can be removed.
I can't remember what model he was referring to, but if it was a
Spitfire, you can replace the bearings with the engine still in the car.
Heck, you can replace EVERYTHING with the engine still in the car!
