    Bearings

    So i asked over at Z31.com with no reply to my post so i figured id ask here.
    Cant remember witch bearings to use for the dett rods in a 12v motor. I know its been speculated the 12v bearings are better and the journal sizes are the same but didnt the dett rods have a small hole in the bearing for the wrist pin oiling? if that were the case i guess i awnserd my own question. dett rod bearings in a 12v motor.

    Yes, whatever the torque specs are for those rods. I thought it was like 46ft/lbs, but if the manual says 40, then 40 it is.
