Default need help with rod bearings

cant figure out which bearings to get. i have crower rods and i just got a set of brown honda factory bearings. i did a plastigauge check and it came out that i have the wrong bearings. thats why my motor is really hard to turn. i plaster gauge between the crank and the rod a few times and all where the same. its to tight. now i need help trying to figure out which bearing will get me in the .0015" range? i was told green. can anyone help would be highly appreciated! thanks in advance!

Buy ACL, they will put you within spec.

Ask Rocket, he sells them for $40 shipped.

Yeah, bearing colors don't work any more as they are tied into the size of the original rods. You can't change things inside your motor without effecting other things. ACL's work perfect with aftermarket rods and are higher quality than Honda stock ones. Buy from Rocket or me but that's the way for you to go.
