OEM or ACL, just check and make sure they are within specs with plastigauge.

Either will serve you well.

I just used OEM... Nothing easier than reading the marks on the block and on the crank, and ordering the correct sizes. I still don't have a grasp on how ACL's once size fit's all bearings work... So I just used OEM. No complaints.

Matt

PS- the reason I say this is bc my OEM bearings worked out so that I have 3 different bearing sizes... one brown, two yellow... and two green.
