Son-of-a-gun, it is a needle bearing (thanks Ray), I didn't even look at my own photo, I just assumed it was a bushing.
Rich - Throw-out bearing's good (200 mi.) as is clutch & pressure plate.
I won't worry about pulling the needle bearing out, I'll just buy another,
This will be for my newly overhauled 235.
Photo attachment is the tired 216 that just came out of my '50 3100 5-window
Anyone know the Needle Bearing Specs or part # ?
'50 Trans., 3 spd Truck std stick,
'53 Eng 235 Full Press
Crank is 235 std stick (not certain of year of crank)
Crank does not presently have a needle bearing in it.
Thanks, Jim
