Won't run? Engine, cooling system, fuel pump, carb, clutch, tranny, brakes, etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Engine & Mechanical' category are here.

Re: Main bearings

G'day,

Just want to confirm bearing numbers.
I've found a seller with MS1569P 10 thou main bearings but he says they are NDC.
It appears that MS1569 is a clevite bearing number and the NDC bearings CWallace has is a different number again.
Will the bearings still work?
The seller is Competition products aus if anyone knows whether or not theyre trustworthy (im still skeptical about ebay)

Cheers

The MS1569P main bearing set is incorrect. They are for the P40 engine.

I am going to edit my previous posts here, since I have made a couple of members buy the wrong set.

The correct set part number for the P engine is MS-1001GP

Clevite just rebadges the NDC, the actual manufacturer.
