Just spoke to machinist today. Bearing 4 out of round. These are Silverline bearings. I'm thinking time to go German.
Anyone else have a similar problem? |

Silverline is made in Mexico. They have been making VW bearings for years. They are the ONLY steel back bearings made for VW air cooled engines. Mahle bearings are made in Brazil and are copper backed. There are NO German bearings at this point that I know of. Koblemschmidt has started making some new bearings but I saw CHINA on the box.
