When you use the cap heads shoulder you apply load and deformation to the cast iron housing. Deflection is low. By bottoming out on the set screw it's the thin aluminium (yes I am English) bearing that takes the load and it will deflect much more. I don't know what torque you used but trust me it won't take much to distort the journal. I have a lifetime in the seal industry and dealing with such problems. Anyway love what you do.

I’ve answered this same question a few times here already, but to recap - It would take well more force than what this set screw could apply to cause any distortion to the bearing, plus it’s not very tight because I just used the short leg of the Allen wrench to cinch it. Because of the press fit in the block bore, there isn’t any surrounding material that can move in order to allow the immediate area engaging the set screw to drop. In the case that it did distort a bit, the material surrounding the set screw is still up in a recessed oil distribution groove that’s removed from the actual bearing surface, which can be seen in the part of the video where I used the mirror to look up at it. Also, the interference fit of the threads at the bottom of the hole doesn’t push down on the material, rather distributes it outward radially. And all the threads being cut in unison through the block bore and then into the bearing work with each other to resist either component from being moved away from their mating surfaces 👍

I took a different approach on mine - I milled the block and crank and installed thrust bearings front and rear so the main bearings don't have to carry any thrust load. I think it's a superior method because it provides more thrust surface and the thrust is direct to the block / crank cover. Milled the thrust bearings, which are essentially sintered bronze washers to provide the desired axial float

Not a bit, the setscrew isn’t very tight, just cinched it in using the short leg of the Allen wrench. Plus the threads all being cut in unison through both the block and bearing act as a keeper to further resist the two components from moving away from each other.

So, when the 1st generation starting engine threw a connecting rod because the operator(s) just shut off the fuel supply instead of running the carburetor dry, diluted the starting engine oil, and the broken rod broke a chunk out of the cylinder skirt casting, is that not going to be an issue ? Do the piston rings not reach the broken skirt during a normal piston stroke, or are you not going to do a complete rebuild and return to service on that block?

There’s no way that set screw could apply enough force to distort the bearing, because of its press fit in the block, another area of the bearing would also have to move to allow any downward movement from the top, and that’s not possible.

The slight interference fit of the threads at the bottom of the bore all get directed outwards, not down 👍

Not sure I fully agree with that. I too would be concerned about forces generated down towards the centreline tweaking the bushing. A couple of options spring to mind, maybe stick with the original low head screw fix but slit it down with a cutting disc to provide an oil path at the correct level, otherwise add an operation and slightly counterbore the boss to lower the screw head. Either way knowing your mechanical sympathy and "feel" I'm positive that set screw was tightened to precisely the correct torque to avoid distortion. Surprised your thumb didn't click!😂

I don't believe that will be an issue, because it's not cinched in tight at all (only used the short leg of the allen wrench) plus a touch of heat re-liquifies the Loctite and makes it release its hold, so removal will be easy. I'm actually more concerned about taking the other raised head allen screws out someday, as I had to mill the OD of their heads down so far to get them to fit in the oil pockets that it made them very thin-walled around the hex drive and I did have one of them split out when putting it in. This recessed set screw setup still has all of its "meat" around the hex drive :-)
