Inter 500 CC Crankshaft bearing

Forums

Hello, Im building a single knocker 500 and I would like to get some information on the timing side main bearing?  I dont have a sample but Im led to belive that it should be a double row ball race.

Any info will be much appreciated....

Thanks     Philip

If you are building an engine, you might find Paul Norman's 'racingvincent' website helpful.  He covers a complete SOHC engine build, in stages.  Also do you have the downloads from 'vintagenorton' site?

Hi Philip,

   The magnesium racing SOHC crankcases use a double ball self aligning metric bearing 62mm outer, 25mm inner and 24mm width. The aluminium road spec. crankcases use a single ball imperial bearing 2.5 inches outer, 1 inch inner and .75 inch width.
