Check Amazon and even e bay. I bought my Kings from summit, the mains were a little tight to suit me so I bought a set of 1 overs off e bay.

Summit or jegs , if there is an issue easy to return ... the bad is you may get a set someone opened then returned , the bearings flailing around in the box on multiple shipments beats them up ... return them for another set , tell summit the real reason so they hopefully will toss them instead of sending them to someone else .

I should have mentioned it's for a low deck 383. I'd like to find a coated, full groove standard width bearing. Race only, stock crank, so very little if any radius on the journals.

Check the prices at 440 source also. The had the best price on piston rings when I was checking, but I bought coated bearings from Summit Racing.

440 source has a good write-up on bearings as well. I didn't see a whole lot on summits website, I'll probably give them a call. Knowing what sizes are available in the type I want is the first step. I first need to pick them out, then after the crank is ground I'll buy them.
