Ken - My Rotec R3600 has roller crank bearings as most radial engines
do, but I can't think of any horizontally opposed aircraft engines
including VW-based designs that do not have plain bearings. It would be
interesting to find out - Anybody on the list know of any A/C engines in
common use with roller cranks?
Thanks
Chris

I do find that bikes have a lot in common with aircraft, one case being the
complete roller bearing crankshaft assembly present in Harley-Davidson
motorcycles of any year since the 20's at least.
