  J-1000-37 Parts for K-465 Main Bearing Boring Machine
In 1937 and later models, Chevrolet changed from a three to four bearing crankshaft. Dealers who purchased the former K-465 Main Bearing Boring Machine prior to this change in 1937 could not service main bearings on the new four bearing crankshaft jobs. The J-1000-37 supplementary parts brought the K-465 Main Bearing Boring Machine up to date.

This micrometer has a "V" type base and aligns with the boring bar for a direct reading (the exact bore will be determined from the cutting setting).
