I don't plan on trying to *bend* any of my cranks in the near future,
so these will do until I decide to build a racer.

It seems No one will step up and say I have them and compared them to KS or Mahle

So, Step up to the plate Moderator "Type 4 Unleashed" and let us know if Standard/standard main bearings are available.
or 10/10 brgns. :oops:
From what I was told when I called, the Silverline bearings in STD/STD are in the mail, arrival around 7 to 10 days ?
I have some Brazilian Steel Backed KS std case/.010 mains.

Hi Richard, Was it the Easter Bunny that told you the bearings ARE in stock? :D

I don't see them listed on your website
Could you point in in the right direction for Standard/Standard main bearings?

Thank You, Christo

No, the owner told me they were in stock.

It's not my website.

There not listed on their site. I had asked and they said they now have them. If your need some give them a call or email them, contact info is on the site.

Excuse me.... :shock: I have been to EVW Website.

They DO NOT LIST ANY TYPE 4 main bearings :roll:

That's why i asked the question Who has standard/standard type 4 mains. :idea:
if i have a Student ask me a question then, I better have an answer for them.
And not the abstract runaround . :oops:

EMW does/has a LOT of stuff that hasn't made it to their website.

They have been doing T4s since the 70s, so they have probably BTDT/have it regardless of the largely ignored website.

Building a sweep-the-floor motor perfect for testing the Silverlines out...

A couple weeks back, i called EMW, and they didn't have any.
I gave them my phone number, and haven't heard back.

Also got on AJ's waiting list for the Std/Std Silverlines then, and still no reply there either...

Now, maybe something has changed in the last few weeks, but, if you actually go looking for them, no dice.
At least that's my experience so far...
