Two Eminence Gris of the TC world have responded and pointed out that
properly setup roller bearings won't break stub axles, so I stand corrected.
I'm still not going to use them :-) I've already twisted off the top of a
sector shaft, writing off one more of my lives, so I will happily motor on
with balls. Heh, heh.

So someone was selling new Hepolite standard size pistons on Ebay and there
was nary a bid. Any comments on that? He did have a higher reserve than the
$75 starters.

Just goes to show that to own a TC you have got to have balls!

As far as the pistons are concerned it's all a matter of chance. You may
advertise and get six people looking for your item, on the other hand it
may have no appeal that week. I advertised an MG item and never got a
bite...put it back a week later and got ten people and a final bid
beyond my reserve...you pays your money etc..etc.
Have a nice day...we are freezing here in New York State think I will go
back to bed!

Regards Geoff

Alan:

How many "standard" engines do you think are still out there. About all
that is left in Std. are the re-sleeve jobs. Also, I think a lot of people
are getting a little tired of the overpriced junk that is being offered in
some areas. I know that I am.
On a positive note, you just stick with the balls!!
