Hemi Help
|
Rod and main bearings are crucial wear items in any engine, so the fact that early Hemi bearings are scarce and expensive is a deterrent to those considering one of these engines for rod projects. Howard has found alternatives for both the rods and mains. The main journals of a stock 331 and most 354s measure the same as those of a Chrysler 318 small-block (2.50 inches). However, the main saddles of the small Hemis measure 2.6570 inches, while the 318’s saddles are 2.6930 inches. With a simple align-boring procedure, Howard enlarges the Hemi saddles to accept the thicker 318 bearings. View Related Article
