				3.2 Intermediate shaft bearings
			 
			
			I recently bought some intermediate shaft bearings from Pelican for a friend. He is building an 86 3.2. 
		
	
		
	
			
				He's built a few engines in the past so he knows what he's doing. I got him Porsche factory bearings: 99610113780 99610143570 He said that on installation, the bearing shells stood proud not allowing the case to come together. Pelican catalog says these are the right bearings. Any thoughts?

			I found if I move the intermediate shaft or crank when putting the 2 halves together the intermediate bearing can move off location.
