You engine builder can tell you which ones. Since you are using a different a crank, you need to have everything measure to make sure they are in spec.

Yeah, you need to have each journal mic'd. A machine shop can let you know.

Ok this must not b common knowledge so.. the ITR and GSR cranks, rods, and blocks r exactly the same. So u can use ACL GSR bearings or decode the block/crank bearing code and use OEM honda bearings or u could use Clevites for a GSR or Type R or whatever u preffer. I like the ACL race and OEM honda myself.
