Just talked to dean the other day and his words were they will be a killer set of heads, he is almost done with them. Can't wait to see the dyno numbers.

Bearings don't look too bad from the pic, how many hours? are they aluminum back "P" bearings? I don't know what Merc uses. I use ACL coated by Calico in everything. Im might be rolling bearings into 2 HP500 carbed engines soon to get another year out of them and curious to see what they look like at 400ish hours.

I don't remember what bearings we put in last rebuild. I'll take a look.

Probably have 250-300 hard hours on the bearings so I'm changing them some other parts while the motors are out.
