Oddjob:
2 looks really bad, 1 isn't great either. 3 and 4 looks about average but I'd change them if you're changing the others. Where's 5?

juitz:
Might be a stupid question - but when ordering bearing shells, do you get a fell set (top/bottom) or is it just half?

Oddjob:
You need to buy 2 shells for each journal, so 10 main bearing shells and 8 big end or conrod shells and you need to order the correct colour dependent on your crankcase and crankshaft sizes. How to ascertain those sizes is well documented on the forum, just search.

That's what I was afraid of. This is gonna be expensive!

Not much change out of £300.
