I've been in talks with King Bearings about making a more race-oriented bearing set for the KA. As some of you may know, ACL has gone bankrupt and their race bearings and even duraglides are nowhere to be found. The only other option is the Clevite 77 P which are more of a factory replacement, albeit they are the only aftermarket option with steel backing that I've found. ACL Aluglide and King AM are aluminum backing.
I'm sure King would like to know how much interest there is for this idea.
Answer the poll and see if we can get them to make it!

Re: King Race Bearings - Interest Poll
ya i know what u mean, i searched high and low all over the web looking for the best bearings for my build. i ended up finding some nismo race bearings that were like 300 or 400 bucks cant remember right off hand, but anyways i just went with clevit for 100 bucks. It would be nice to find a nice designed race proven bearing thats made for high hp and torque, and rev friendly. im hopping the clevits last because if they screw up my brian crower crank imma be one pist mofo.
