Triumph Repair: 1500 journal measurements, mg midget, spitfire 1500

Question
I have a customer restoring a rubber bumper Mg Midget which as far as I know shared the same engine as the Spitfire 1500. We are trying to find the original measurements of the main bearing journals so that we can work out how far out this is ans then what bearings to supply. Can you assist us please?

Answer
Hi Peter,

Since I'm geared towards helping the enthusiast, I suspect you won't mind paying my consulting rate of $150/hr?

If so, please provide a billing address?

Anyway, the standard crank main bearing dimension is 2.3115".


Cheers,

Jim
