i bought the main bearings from spares. and i find all the shells are same, and they same as the original shells engine block side,there is hole on each shell ,and groove isnt at midder.
The shell of another side should be smooth , no hole on it .and the groove should be at middle of the shell. so i couldnt fit this side..
my engine is not very good, hope you can understand what am i saying.

i fell for this one recently

this is the difference between A and A+ bearings

You have an A set, and need to order an A+ set by the sounds of it

I'd had the wrong bearings in my garage for 2 years, I only discovered they were wrong when I opend the pack, can't even remember where I bought them.

Mini spares North sorted me a new set. I do buy the last +10s they had though.

Good. As it seems to happen a lot (and even to some who are not exactly new to A-series tuning) there is obviously a need to highlight the differance.
