    Xflow main bearings 010 and camshaft bearing

    Hi all hoping for a lil help. I am struggling to find mains and cam bearing so I can rebuild the xflow I picked up on Friday ( cheers mike, can't wait to put it together and in) only place I found them is buttons and really hate there prices lol.
    Got big ends, gaskets, etc . Just need to lay my hands on mains at +010 and std cam bearing. Anyone got a cheaper place to buy? Cheers

    i assume you mean burtons!

    everyone knocks them, but to be fair, they are starting to reproduce and source stuff that would be otherwise unavailable.

    get your yellow pages out and find someone local to you that does engine reconditioning/crank grinding etc, they should be able to help,

    p.s when it comes to crank bearing you want to be using lead copper bearings
