I don't know if this will be any use, but this is the original ball bearing serial numbers for the Firestorm s/head bearings:-

SAC 3055-1

SAC 2647-1

I tried to get my local bearing supplier to match them, but in the taper roller instead of the ball bearing type. They came back with "there's none that size anywhere in Europe" so good luck with your search :!:

Paul,

I think DB was only hoping to got hold of the actual dimensions, so he could compare them with the ones he came across at work not purchase any :!:
