I Have Questions About Crank Bearings On My Super Hawk

[bill440cars]

My Questions are about the right crankshaft bearing. From my previous question sometime back, I know that the right crank bearing consists of the individual bearing rollers along with the inner & outer races. Then, there's another bearing to use, if the inner race of the previously mentioned bearing is bad.

My questions are:

1. Is one the one type of bearing better than the other one?

2. Is the inner race of the original "multipiece" bearing, hard to remove? I hadn't really looked to
see how much trouble it would be to remove.

3. If it were YOU, which bearing would you prefer to run and why?

I DO remember that the inner race, which is all I have of the right side bearing, is in good
shape. I would appreciate your input on this.

Thank you, Bill

The OTHER BEARING is a Ball type which is to replace the Pin bearing as the engine was issued if the Pin bearing went bad and damaged the bearing race on the crank end. I know of no performance advantage for the Ball bearing other than ya can use a crank with a damaged bearing surface. ................lm

So LM, I'm guessing that you would prefer to use the original type bearing, if possible? Of course the availability of the 2 different types of bearings have "a bearing" on which way I go.

If the crank and otter bearing races and the pins are good I use them. The BALL type is rather expensive and I have only used that type when the crank bearing race is shot but the rest is good to use. Saves getting another crank. Even though I have them here. ............lm
