Used this bearing?

I'm beginning to think that the LN is no better than any other without the additional aid of oiling (it spun rough).

Your "other internal failure" is what created that. If something else goes south in the engine, ANY of the retrofits out there will suffer from the occurrence.

Trust that it would have been WORSE if you were using "additional oiling", thereby force feeding the IMSB with debris filled oil.

Your "fixes" that are mentioned will not solve the root of the issues that led to your most recent failure. You haven't touched on the underlying condition that is always present, but don't feel bad, few people do.

You may do a 3rd engine, whether you want to, or not.

Okay, I'll bite, so what is the "root" cause of my "other internal failure"? What's the underlying condition.........other than it's not a properly engineered and built 911 aircooled engine
