I am re-doing my 1725 engine. Chevy Rods, stroked crank, Custom pistons, KB cam. I ordered and received new cam bearings from SS. I notice they are split - a gap cut through at one point. I also notice the originals are similarly split, but the originals have "interlocking" ends much like pieces of a jig saw puzzle, which, apparently after installation form a pretty tight complete ring. In fact I thought the original cam bearings WERE a solid ring until I looked closely and saw that it is only the interlocking ends that make it so. Any experts out there care to comment on whether the new style have any shortcomings compared to the originals?
Thanks,
Tom
