>Also, are the frictional loses from three vs. five bearings a real big deal.
I can't be definitive about it, but I'd say yes. I have a '67 B - 5 main
bearings, and a '58 A that has a 3 bearing B engine. The A's engine seems
to rev a lot more freely in the upper range.
I can't be definitive because the two cars are geared differently (as well
they should be), and it should enable the A's engine to be used more in the
upper range.
