As I complete assembly of the new 4.2 L for my BGT, it comes time to
install a new pilot bearing.

What is the conventional wisdom regarding lubrication? Should this
bronze bearing be soaked in motor oil before installation, or is that an
outdated practice ?

The bearing in question is the GM piece for a Chevy, cut down to fit the
Rover crank.

Thanks,

Jim Stuart
