there is a page showing the machining necessary. if you need it I will have to go elseware to have it scanned.
They also made slipper bearings for Ford 100E (E93A ??)

hi John,
Thanks for the dimension of the tunnel, I will check that out and see how it works out.

I may be back!

Thanks John for your help. The inside diameter of con-rod (without shell fitted) was just what I needed.

Also thank you to everyone else who responded, much appreciated.

regards, Richard

Thanks John. That dimension of 2.403/2.404 is what I wanted.
I would very much like a copy of the page that you mention giving machining requirements if convenient.
No hurry at all but it would be nice to have.
