[Shotimes] I hope my bearings are right!

[Ron Porter]

That's a bit severe. Granted, if you buy a used SHO and don't know the
history, it may need them. My "questionable history" '95 with 86K miles
trashed the bearings, but the '89 that I owned since new is still fine after
200K+ miles with the new owner. My current '94 with 186K miles that had two
previous SHO enthusiast owners also is fine (no odd noises).

But, if I bought a used SHO, I would consider it. The best time to do them
is if you are removing the Y-pipe for any reason. It's a piece of cake with
the Y-pipe off (speaking from experience with a snow-belt car that broke 3
exhaust studs upon removal!!).

Pretty much every SHO on the road right now needs to get their rod bearings 
changed.

If a bearing spins the motor is done or will need a rebuild.
