Old ARIAS question

Looking at a block that requires the Olds Mains.....I have heard finding Bearings is TOUGH??!! Can you still get cranks made like this?? Who is the "Best Bet" for this?? Thanks, Tim

 

Billy Biers had Clevite make a large run of these bearings a while back. AFAIK this is the only source for these bearing these days. Standard size only, unless Billy has done a new run lately. Shop number is 518-434-2747 and cell number is 518-368-9696.

Just about anybody can make you a crank to suit. It's a catalogue item from Crower.

 

I just talked to Bob Miner...he said "Some Guy" in Ney York makes them...but did not have Name or Number??!! HELP!!!! Thanks, Tim 616-260-4064

 

Yes, that's Billy, above.

 

THANK YOU!! Will call him!!

haha!! Putting another motor together....this one with a "huffer" on top!

 

Did you get this block from Dana? Steel main caps?

 

Thinking about it...should I know something??

 

Nope. Just curious, that's all. Your PM box is full.

 

Finally the sense has returned (Kidding) Being supercharged is like being in a gang, you never really get out....lol

Glad to hear all is well, Buzz said your doing a funny car for him, I told him you are the man.
