Chevrolet 216 235 (early) main bearings? The same?

[Alex van de Wetering]

Thanks everyone for all the replies, info and suggestions.

David; thanks for checking the manual. Interesting to see that GM 608421 is advertised by a parts supplier as being 010 oversize; if it proves to be Standard in stead, than maybe this is the solution for Maurice!

Thanks Maurice; I am after a full set of (preferebly precision) main bearings size 030.

Mike; Thanks for uploading the booklet; very interesting!

Phil; I am a regular on your website; so much interesting info...and I still have a lot to learn when it comes to the mechanical side of our beloved CMP's!

Keep us posted on your progress.

Indeed, it's about time I update my resto-log. My focus is on the engine and rear axle for this winter, as I hope to have the truck running, nex year!
