ET: Engine (Twin) Rocker Bearing (ET26) diameter

I have used twine balers only. Ruminants are sufficiently difficult to maintain without hardware disease, so there is no sense in introducing wire shards.

I fear that I helped start the drift away from topic. Please excuse this rookie mistake.

Measuring is a good idea. It never occurred to me because I have never found a tight rocker bearing in any tunnel I have worked on. I have always installed locking rocker feed bolts to keep the bearing in place and I have always been surprised at how well they have worked. The advent of the long bearing seems good, although I have never used one. I am always surprised at how long it takes to modify the rocker when using the locking rocker feed bolts on high-lift cams.

Interestingly the new rocker bearings slid in to place with a gentle push and are now retained with the locking feed bolts. So the old ones must have been slightly OD.
