Do i need to change bearing size if i do this combo?

What bearings should i get? Clevite? Top Line? King? King

I am doing this on a stock 6-bolt i am buying from an engine warehouse.
 
No bearing size is changed only if the crank is cut, which mitsu doesn't recommend anyway. As for what bearings to use, I'm using stock mitsu bearings. But if I had to buy again I would probably opt for the the Clevites. They seem to be a popular choice, have a good rep from what I hear and are cheaper than factory pieces. I have used Topline bearings when I rebuilt a 7M-GE and had no issue at all with them.
 
Anyone use the king bearings??

They seem like a good upgrade.
