    Have you got the new pistons to go with the new bearings Bill ? i.e - measure the boss width. I can only speak for the 390, as that is all I run.
    If they happily fit other pistons, then great.

    This bearing fits the 390/420/430 right? I’m not sure about the 250/360/500? I have new wiesco/woosner pistons for the 250’s and 500’s right now. I need to start boring the 390/420 clyinders. I’m going to let my son do all the boring so he learns it. Dad won’t be around for ever.

    would you guys recommend going with the wider wrist pin bearing or a shorter bearing and using the the original 3mm spacers on new piston.
