Title: "Blank" cam bearings for aftermarket blocks...
Post by: blykins on September 30, 2025, 03:22:11 PM
Mainly making these for Pond/BBM blocks for a SOHC configuration.  No holes.  Can also be used to block off oil at the cam so that you can pressurize the oiling system before you start building (check for drill throughs, cracks, etc.)

Let me know if there is any interest.

I'd be up for some of those, maybe five or six of them.

Interesting idea for pressuring the oil system. I'll be watching for pricing

I just got around to doing this.  Gonna make sure that they fit well in the block, then I'll circle back around to you guys.

Bearings fit perfect.  Been trying to shop pricing across various shops.  Looks like the best I'm gonna be able to do is $21 per individual bearing.  Not sure if that's worth it to anyone but I'll need to order 50 to get it at that price.

I'll take six of them if you end up going forward with 50 - Jay

Great, that's 33. 

I'd get the rest and keep them, but I don't anticipate them being a big seller.

That'll work.

I'll get them ordered up.  Will post here when they're done.

Ok, these are ordered.

For the SOHC Pond head, I also have spark plug spacers in stock so that you can use a long reach plug and get the head of the plug down around where it needs to be instead of tucked up in the hole.

Brent, I sent you a PM a few weeks ago thru the forum here to order 3, and add them to Jay Brown’s order, not sure if you got the message? Thanks.

No sir, I sure didn't.  Just checked my PM's and nothing was there.

Got it noted, will put yours in with Jay's when they show up.

Couple guys have hung me out to dry on this, so I will have extras if anyone needs some.
