Good thing I took it out then! Every time someone shows bearings on the internet, they look horrible! That's good to know. The original engine building shop said they looked great for bearings with that mileage. He's the guy I got a really uneasy feeling about. ;)
Wow, how to keep an eye on engine bearing problems before they happen in 1919 Fords... Pg 126. http://books.google.com/books?id=_igDAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA126&ots=KgJ7p6b8IL&dq=pics%20of%20new%20engine%20 bearings&pg=PA126#v=onepage&q&f=false
