Checking shell sizes...

Quick call today to Rimmer Bros to double check I had the right sizes for ordering new big end and main bearing shells.

The block and crank was a exchange units and my 1985 invoice indicated +0.20, but the shells had 010 and 040 marked on them. He confirmed I would need the sizes as marked on shells and the invoice was only a guide to say it had been reground!

Interestedly a re-ground block and crank will cost over £470 today.
