So... now that im caught back up on some expenses and I can finally get back to finishing the Iron 5.7 build I am looking to buy all new main, and rod bearings, and a fresh set of piston rings.

What brands should I go with and what are some good links?
The motor is a 3.898 bore and is going to be a H/C setup on a 100 shot.
Stock rods an pistons.

Thanks for the help in advance

 

Sealed Power makes some good stuff.

call Matt at Polydyn,they have coated bearings in stock. I put rod and main bearing in my new ls1 from them. they are clevite77 h series. Worth every penny imo. Cost me 284.18.

CB663HN-rod bearings
MS2199H-mains

 

Those are the ones i was looking at. Pretty good price for both but... check this out http://www.hdmaddog.com/Chevy-LS1-57...-p6487893.html

 

thats a good deal, i just wanted mine coated for extra insurance.

 

oh... see i thought they came coated already. So the ones from polydyn are coated an diff from the ones i posted??

 

the ones u posted ARE NOT coated, and the polydyn one ARE coated

 

Good lookin out man! I honestly don't think there is a better deal than the polydyn coated ones. Guess im going with them. Plus i know the clevites are proven. Its cheaper than the OEM ones.

 

Both Clevite and Sealed Power make good proven products

 

This will never happen....
