Thank you for the valuable information and advice. This specific oil bushing is simply used to direct oil around a shaft and serve no purpose as a bearing as it sits between two roller bearings. Therefore, the advice makes lots of sense.

I am in the process of building the Howell V4. The engine incorporates an oil pump which forces oil through passages to places where it is required. One such passage "crosses" the crankshaft. This is achieved by used an oil bushing that has an internal groove, directing the oil from a hole in...

Y yip, got them. Sold the ML 10 and bought a Myford Super 7. Fixed that and sold it when I got an opportunity to buy an Emco Maximat V10P. The Emco is just a level above the Myford. I am tempted to go for the Emco Super 11 but at my age I will stick to the Maximat V10P

Hi Gus Yes, I have thought of that. Seeing that I have been looking out for some time to buy these items without success, I will have to go that way. Do you have dimensions that you perhaps want to share? Regards
