Gentlemen, I could use some help with a recommendation on bearings for my '65 289 rebuild from some of you guys with track time.
I have heard that Vandervell was a good brand name, but they are not available in the States under that name. Clevite makes a "V series" bearing that is based on the Vandervell design. Clevite make several types, which one would you use.
Is the Vandervell brand still markeded in the UK for a stock Ford 289 performance engine ? I've also heard Mahle is good.
This is one area where I don't want to have any problems. I will need to make a decision very soon, please help.
