Hello again to all..It's been quite a while for me.

Is there any source for race bearings, both rod and mains ?
Most, or all I've seen thru the years are Aluminum surface King or original Glyco brand, no Tri-Metal or coated...

I use kings to 7500rpm and 12:1. Never a problem.

I've been running the Kings in my race engines for the past 6 years.

Likewise, King and Kolbenschmidt no issues racing for years...

Looking to buy some kings right now and have PN C4155-AM which I believe to be correct, just can't find anyone with em. Where did you guys get yours from?

I'd hit up EBS Racing in Sparks, when it's been anything other than a group buy or a random find on eBay it's been them...

I took up your past advice on this thread and found some Kolbenschmidt for 50$ on ebay and went with those. Still sending an email to ebs about their stock of kings as I've got a few motor builds lined up and would like to use the same bearings in all and for just the ease of ordering.
