  Thanks I noticed those but its shipped from manufacturer Mahle who now markets Clevite and substitutes a bearing thats no longer the tri metal 77 type. Using aluminum now.

See: http://kingracebearings.com/products-overview/xp-racing-line/

Note the similarity to an LSR application:

"It was developed for all performance applications that use forged steel aftermarket crankshafts and produce high loads for extended periods."

   Yes i realize that however they do not make the bearing I need in the XP series i even spent time talking with the King sales department the only cross to the CB-610P is their aluminum material so far at least maybe one day but not available at this time in XP.

The commonly available CB-745P SBC small journal bearing has same dimensions except the width. Maybe you could get them narrowed or there is space in your rod? Don't know the feasibility of that but ask your machinist/engine builder.

Start with a CB-745HN which is already narrowed. Then you can stick in a rod and torque, then center up in your mill and use an angled tool to narrow it and chamfer at the same time. I used to do it all the time.

    Good to know I did purchase a set of King coated rod bearings which were easy to machine for the reduced width. Used the trusty old Southbend and a fixture machined for the needed job. Same idea reduce width and chamfer all in one operation.
