Hi feuer, I've put about 6,000 miles on the new rod bearings and I'm very pleased to report I have had zero issues. I was driving very carefully at first as I regained confidence in the car, but now I have no doubts that I put it back together correctly! I figure these bearings will last me as long as I want to keep the car.
That dark spot on that bearing is interesting - like it's worn through the outer layer right at the bottom of the stroke. What's even more interesting is that nearly every one of my bearings had that dark brown/green look to them over the entire surface. The more pictures that get posted like this, the more I'm very happy I changed mine when I did.
