They were toast. In go some slick new German FAG manufactured ones...I warmed the cases to 180F, chilled the bearings to 0F. They dropped in with finger pressure :)

A little Hondabond HT (no gasket in the 577 series saw) seals it up, and we have a freshened up 577 bottom end....time to grind on the jug a bit next.
