If you want long life choose Clevites. If you're not that fussed about longevity go with Sealed Power or King. Whenever I've done a refresh on an engine with Clevites, they always look they can go back in. Can't say the same with King or SPs

I use the Federal Mogul race rod bearings, BB Chevy size, usually on my strokers motors, race or street builds thumbsI use to use the Cleveite 527P bearings before Michigan bought them a long time ago, the quality control went out the window so I switched shruggy

After 300 passes on Clevite H series. Except for a dirt scratch or two they all look like new.

cab, when you say race bearing are you reffering to an H or HP bearing?

I've always used Clevite P series on street/strip engines.
