I have always replaced mine with stock honda bearings, but I hear ACL bearings are pretty good. I might try them in the future.

honda makes a hell of a bearing. when we get custom grinded cranks we use ITM's, they are the ****. have some in a daily driver for over a year. we took the motor apart last week they still looked brand new.

I wouldn't say there is much of an upgrade from honda bearings! I've used them in every motor i've ever built.

ITM bearings? Who makes those?

I would think it would be hard to find an off the shelf replacement that was ebtter quality than OEM Honda...especially GSR Rod Bearings.

From my experience, HOnda's are best.
I have met Domestic guys who run Honda bearings on their race cars.
