They aren't that spendy. Had my machinest talk me in to reusing my main bearings. They looked like new, but when I put them in, they just fell in to the saddles - not loose, but no spring. They mic'ed ok, so I assume there was still some crush. I went ahead and reused them. Been worrying about it ever since. Fastest 300
