Re: Spitfire Engine Bearings Supplier?

We'd recommend Vandervells but they are unobtainable -- haven't been made 
for some time I guess.

So we end up with Glaciers or something made in Israel. Actually, if you 
don't overly abuse them, they do the job.

Try West Michigan Imports (Grand Rapids) who is a Britcar shop with lots of 
parts (just rebuilt my 1147 race engine) -- 616-878-5774 or 
dbailey_wmi@yahoo.com
