apparently i cant get rod bearings or rod/main bolts or head studs from auto zone, advance, pep boys, etc. around here and they cant/wont order them for me. i had the hardest time just convincing advance to special order me rings for 50 bucks more than they usually sell for. it sucks, i know.

i need to order clevite 77 rod and main bearings and arp fasteners, i know i was going to get them from someone on here before, but it has been awhile so i dont remember who you were! (sorry!) let me know who you are and ill send you money as soon as you do. im dying here! the engine is ready to be re-assembled and i cant do it because auto parts stores suck. thanks!!

Clevite part numbers are CB1287P for rod bearings and MS1565P for main bearings. Clevite makes mains in standard, .25mm, .50mm, .75m and 1mm undersize. Looks like you can order them online with Autozone, Napa, or Advance auto.

HERE's an auction for a set of .25mm undersize clevite main bearings, pretty cheap. They've also got STANDARD and .50mm undersize I've bought several parts from mpcentral, good ebayer.

Any recommendations on what rod bearings I should use? My motor will be on a stand tomorrow, time to start prepping.
