Does anybody know what these look like? I know what the rear one looks like and the middle one, but the front one (according to catalogs) is for 24-27....so, is the 1909 bearing different than this later one?
Also need to know which way the bearing clip goes, at the moment I've got it drawn on the top side of the bearing, because this puts the set screw hole perpendicular to the right side of the engine block.

Re: 1909 Camshaft Bearings...
09 to 23 front bearing was shaped different because the front cam lobes were not lengthened as were those on later camshafts. There are examples in quite a few sources eg Fahstocks articles, parts catalogues etc. I belive the Model T manual has illustrations.
There may be other changes I'm not aware of but that's the major difference.
