I have a set of them that look like they will work, but I'd need to put a piece of .001" thick shim stock between the bearing shell and the block, and the cap. I'm not really fond of the idea of doing it that way! If I end up doing it that way, I'll use stainless steel shim stock and red LocTite to assure there's no relative movement.
