Is it possible to replace the main bearing shells with the engine in situ and if so, how? HBoL says only the big ends can.
Have you seen Brian's page?

Low and behold it now leaks.... sigh. Can theoretically be bashed in from the front, but it's such a tight fit - and you really should get some flexi-gasket on it - that I'm going to have to drop the sump again....
