ACL Racing or King bearings.

Best price in Ebay.

King HP Series.

Just a heads up guys to check bearing dimensions very carefully.

A set of main bearing either manufactured or boxed by SpeedPro had .001 difference in the bearing shell thickness from bearing to bearing.

I didn't come across these types of issues in the past, but I guess that the scrap bin in QC has been removed in favor of a management bonus program.

This is the reason why many have switched to the ACL Racing or King HP series of bearings.
