    Posted: 09 Oct 2016 at 2:36pm
Hey folks,

I have a 1940 Model b that I am rebuilding the engine on and need some expertise. I have new cam bearings installed in the block and when in position the oil holes between the block and cam bearings do not line up. Approximately 1/2 the hole is covered by the bearings at all 3 locations. Is this normal or do I have cam bearings wirh holes that are off location? I assume what is exposed of the oil hole is sufficient for oiling the cam but want to make sure

just run a drill bit in to open up the holes to match the block.
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

The holes are to oil the main Bearings. They need to be open.
