Ok so I have a 90 gsx and after putting my holest on it I ended up washing washing a bearing and spun it. So I'm going to cut the crank and put new bearings in. I was running acl aluglide and I think I'm going to move up a step and I'm not sure if I should go acl race or cleavites. Any suggestions or feed back would be great or other bearing options. Thanks a ton in advance

It's all explained on the thread that Liquid and Cookmeup posted but the Aluglildes are OEM replacement bearings, not performance bears as you have discovered. I would highly recommend the ACL Race bearings over the Clevites, they are the the best in my opinion.

Also I would consider getting a new standard crankshaft. When I spun my BS bearings I found a standard sized 6-bolt crank out of a running car for about $150 shipped on ebay.
