[Shotimes] rod bearings

[Ron Porter]

Beginning to be a thing to add to the misnamed-60K-but-really-the-100K
service.

Although there are a lot of engines with over 200k and still on the original
bearings. Mark had a good comment though, for 4 hours of work (assuming the
y-pipe comes off OK) and well under $100 in parts, the job is done.

Well when they designed the car they also didn't know it would go through
rod bearings every 90k miles.
