Chris:
i also manufacture rod molds for models T,A,B ford ...i had sent you an info packet several months ago with linebore unit and mainbearing mold info ...rod mold is same design ...pours bearing diameter 1/8" undersize with .030" excess material on side flanges(thrust)...i have used a lathe fixture like the one in the above post for a number of years ...i also mount a radius/facing bit on opposite sides of the boring bit to cut side flanges and clearance radai...one radius/facing bit will have to be ground for a left hand cut and one right hand (or you can reverse spindle...hope this helps
best regards
