I went with ross pistons .20 over, tomei rods,.and acl race bearings. Picking it up this week the builder said he has used acl race bearings in all his builds with great success, only time will tell.

IIRC, Clevite changed to Aluminum bearings and no longer have tri-metal. I like tri-metal bearings because the copper inner layer is very fatigue resistant and can handle the beating I intend to put my car through!

I just freshened up my motor after 18k miles and the rod bearings looked great! I went with ACL race series.

King. And for a street car I would recommend aluminum bearings. They hold up just as much hp, but they're more forgiving to contamination.

The bearings don't touch the crank. They ride on a thin film of oil.

My car is not going to be a stret hp car but will be a DD im shooting for atleast 400awhp on the build this go round then 600 in a year or two so i wanna kinda experiment with what may be bnest bearings. I am looking at the Celvite 77s and ACL Race bearings right now. And as for the King do you have a link to a place that has them dont like Amazon at all and thats where i see em at.
