Automotive Precision Machinery in Georgia, 800-282 9319 Got me some Perkins parts that are no longer avl. They got them from overseas. Give them a call.
 
Jaybird, sorry I can't help you but I did have the same problem with a Continental gas engine in a 180 Massey. Seems they only made 82 or thereabouts 180 gassers with the Continental engine and the engine was specific to that tractor. The rest of the gassers were Perkins. I finally solved the problem with a junkyard diesel. Jim
 
Think a friend of mine had one of those 180s in his
barn/shop. They went to rebuild it and found out it
was a gas engine made out of a diesel and there
weren't any parts to be had, this was 30 years ago.
 
I know that Perkins engines are in forklifts .maby you could
search out a local forklift shop and they could steer you to there
engine rebuilder ???
 
A good automotive machine shop should be able to reline your old bearing shells. I have had bearings redone with excellent results.
 
Hi
Did you find any bearings and if not what size do you want. I can ask my motor guy up here in Canada, sometimes this odd craps on the shelf. or he knows a man that knows a man. they been doing motor work a lot more than the 40 years I"ve been around. If they can"t find it you got a real problem.
Regards Robert.
 
That CB number that oj posted is a Clevite number for the rod bearing. Now a main bearing for a 354 has the same dimensions except it is 0.010 narrower. Got e-mail?

Try rf engine in morrice, mi. I've had a few very good
experiences with them and they're good at tracking things
down. Matt or Andy is who I talked to and ask for.
