Oem or acl bearing

I'm working on my b18b trying to figure what are the best bearings to use.

Re: Oem or acl bearing

People will come on here to promote both. Both can work. I'm an OEM person, but you'll have advocates for ACL as well. So, this "poll" really won't help with your decision.

If the acls give you the clearances you need. run them. if the oem give the clearances you need. run them.

Re: Oem or acl bearing

Measure them. But usually the ACl's are in the "green" range of honda's Oem bearings. Then you can get the "X" acl's that gives you .001" more clearance than the std's.
