I have been looking and waiting with some shops for rod bearings for my joyner 800cc sandviper carb...it has been 1 1/2 years looking and waiting please someone help...i blew the motor, got all the parts...except rod bearings...i know that the roketa 800cc carb is the same and i know the engine came out of a car (eastern hemisphere only car) and the engine model is a F8B, but for some reason it is impossible to get rod bearings...i thought you can find everything on the internet...i guess I was wrong
thanks to anybody that can help

P.S. Correction I can find the rod bearings but i have to buy 100 units!!!!

I don't know how much help this might be but call Itty Bitty Motorsports at 602-971-8800 and ask for Wes. He races Roketa 800 cc and they started carrying Joyner again. He has done some phenomenal work for me, maybe he can help you out!

I was able to find bearings at my local auto parts store for my 1000cc. They had a book that listed several motors including yours. Maybe try your local parts store. It will have to be an independant, they wont have them at autozone or kragen. There is also a dealer for these motors in cal. I got hooked up with him through Sean at superkart. He will be able to get you anything you need as well. His web sight is super-kart.com his phone number is on the contact page. Good luck.

Thanks for the info...I have been talking to itty bitty and they are having a hard time too and they have been very helpful but they are too having a hard time finding bearings. Also I tried autozone and even the local suziki dealership they both did not carry anything, but I did not try an independent place yet...thanks everybody for the info

I can ship the bearings to you for 50 bucks + shipping.
If you want them e-mail me and we'll talk.
