Main bearings question

[jbxx]

Still waiting for my pistons ( coming up on ten months ).
I thought of another question. What kind of bearings would you use with a Scat crank and a 88 Renix block?
I want to get building on this thing, I'm a patient guy, but my limits are being tested here!

where did you order pistons from?

I have used Cevites in the past with out issue on the mains. However my last bearings have been Kings and I would not use them on the mains again. Thickness is inconsistent and the crush area was rubbing on the crank. I sent them back to king about a week ago and they have not addressed the issue yet. Bearings were measured with a mic and that is hen the thickness was found inconsistent. I don't have any personal experience with coated bearings yet, but I have heard pretty good reports of coated bearings. If you want to spend about $30 more over un coated bearings I would talk to calico coatings about bearings.

Clevite or FederalMogul, you need them to fit the BLOCK and whatever size the crank is, STD, .010" ect.

When I called Scat about mine they recommended Clevite or King. Given the earlier post I would stick with Clevite which is what I did on the mains, but used EngineTech from my machine shop since the Clevite rod bearings do not have the necessary oil squirter holes.

Bulltear.
I have had many a communication though.
It is holding up my build.
I'll give them a little more time then, I'll be asking for a refund, and probably go with some KB 944's

10 months is rediculous.
