Well I have decided that at 60+k with no metal in oil filter or on LN magnetic plug, I am going to get the dual row ceramic bearings installed along with a new AOS unit. Since it is a TIP it will take a little longer than a standard. My quote for the whole thing including gaskets and minor stuff is 3 grand. Does this sound reasonable to you? JFP or Jake???? I also might do the LN oil filter change just to keep any other junk out of the engine block. Any thoughts on this? I want to do this for the peace of mind as I plan on keeping this little classic for quite awhile.
