I am sure this has been covered in the past, but what is a source for 239 cam bearings  I am trying to help a local shop out as they thought all Y blocks are the same.. I know 239s are different but never paid much attention to building one

My ‘54 F100 was built in June ‘54. My buddy has a ‘54 F100 built in August ‘54. Both were built at the Chester PA plant. Both are EBU blocks. I’m convinced the 13 tooth distributor is large camshaft bearings and the 14 tooth distributor is the smaller camshaft bearings.


Yes, thanks for that info Dennis. It helps shed some light on my car, from an originality perspective. I recently bought a refurbished 14 tooth distributor. It's part numbers all seem to match the numbers on my current EBU distributor, so the info I'm getting from from everyone seems to fit.
