If he is using stock 4.3 Journal sizes, I could send you a few bearing from my stock shortblock, I was going to replace them anyways. :)

I got my dad's old truck home once by putting gear lube in the oil to bring up the pressure. Thinking about trying that.

My inlaws bought a Honda Civic for their son. My girlfirend/wife borrow it for a awhile and I did her a favor and changed the oil. After I did that she drove it home, called me up and said it was a lot faster. I was puzzle by that. The next day she call me up and it smoked like you wouldn't beleive.

Its wasn't a vtec. I imagine it got very little fresh oil in its life, since they bought it 78K miles and I did the oil change at 83K miles.
