I was teetering on that. But my OCD gene just doesn't like that much friction, without oil squirting on it. I even considered that ball bearing eccentric. If I knew it'd get enough oil, I would have bought it, but it just looks like something that could wreck an engine in a hurry.

I had the same problem with my 390 build, I fabricated a spacer from a fender washer.
