Please help! When using MGB rod bearings
in a Spitfire 1500 engine I know I must file
the outside edge of the locator tang which I've
done. Do I have to remove any material from
that side of the bearing. I've layed the bearing
on the crank journal and there's about 1/16"
clearance on each side. There is a small amount
of the bearing that extends over the chamfer of
the rod on the tang side. Thanks!
Larry
