As for the mains there is a wider selection of bearing sizes avaiable.

As I mentioned previously, I would only recommend using plastiguage to see which bearing shells you need.
Thanks James for confirming that regarding rod shells, as for main shells, is there any technical information as regards thickness difference of the yellow, green,and white shells on std shells, I’m assuming they are only different in 0.01. Or 0.03 difference so to speak just to take up a bit of wear on crank bearing faces. ........ Sorry to blast you with this. Also regarding ring sizes shows two different ring options for std rings, 0 and 00. I’m presuming 00 are to be used on a higher mile engine , any tech info on this appreciated ? £40 price difference also between the two different part numbers I understand measuring end gap etc. ..... Any specific end gap for csl.. thanks for your input James. ,,, speaking to my local engineer suppliers today, they say they would use the 00 term / measurements, to indicate a higher degree of machined /measured accuracy.
