Yeah I used to use the Clevite H series bearing a lot, but I started using ACL coated bearings from Calico [Coated Bearings | Calico Coatings](http://www.calicocoatings.com/bearings.html)

Found they were a little more consistent and cheaper than the TriArmor series

This engine actually has ACL bearings in it, i’m finding the opposite- they seem to be inconsistent, 2/10 are showing very strange wear patterns.
