HELP! GSR BEARING ISSUE

Alright I have 95 gsr block running oversized itr pistons and jdm itr rods now when buying main & rod bearings then thrust washers which is better oem or acl?

STANDARD ACL
RACING ACL
STANDARD OEM????

The racing acl can each be bought with the .001 oil clearence worth it or not ... I have done search after search for these find topics but nothing discussings acl's advancement into the .001 oil clearence I would figure this would mess up the fitment and be loose ??? any opinions welcome desperate to find the right bearings for a motor I have been building quite sometime and don't want my money to go to waste ...

use the OEM bearings and have your machinist measure crank rod journals vs. rod big bore diameter to determine the clearance for spec for the ITR since you cannot easily tell hwo to match ITR rod with GSR crank from the stamped codes.
