Default Eagle rods: Honda or ACL bearings

I'm building my B20VTEC and I'm using the Eagle H beams. Which bearings should I use for this? I have head great things about both Honda OEM's and ACL's. I was going to use Honda OEM's for the main's just for the fact that the bores may be a little different in each one and I want to get an exact clearence number for each one where as the rods are all machined to the same spec. Any advice is appreciated.

I trust Honda parts more than aftermarket parts, I'm using the honda bearings.

I used Clevite bearings on my old setup.

Question though. Did you cut the crank at all? If you did, you won't be able to use Honda bearings. They don't make undersized bearings. Well, "oversized" if you're putting it on the rod, if ya know what I mean.

I went with all Honda bearings. Used factory colors. The crank was micropolished, but that won't really effect clearances.
