Note I said-
I cannot see the benefit of fitting a single row deep groove ball bearing and a double row self aligning bearing on the front of an Austin Seven crankshaft.
The self aligning capability is negated by the ball bearing although the drsa bearing rolls a little more easily than say a roller bearing.
This doesn't mean it won't work - just as using two front ball bearings or two AC bearings mounted front to front or back to back will work, it is just that I cannot see any great benefit in fitting a double row self aligning bearing and a single row ball bearing on the front of an Austin Seven crankshaft from a bearing design perspective.
