I don't know why I would ever question this groups' expertise. I think the attached pic from #2 tells the story. The bearing halves are imbedded in each other and paper thin. Geez these engines are tough. I will for sure pull the other caps. when saying bearing shells do you mean the bearing...

This is from #1. I am not an expert but I don't see anything alarming. The rod bearing halves are scored but each in a single piece. I an going to pull #2 but if it looks the same that will probably be as far as I go with this. What do you fellas think?

Thanks guys. I will get started on this by Monday and keep you posted. As always I appreciate the help.

Thanks for the replies! I will give this a try as soon as my reinforcements arrive. I'll let you know how it goes.

I am new to the website and I hope I am posting my question in the right place. I have a 1962 M37B1 that is in pretty good shape but has been stored outside for about 10 years before I got it. I have lightly driven it and was going to go for my first real drive yesterday evening and the clutch...
