Honda engine bearings......OEM versus ACL?
Wanted to get some opinions about which bearings to use.
I will use an OEM LS crankshaft that will probably mic out at the proper specs, meaning no previously spun bearings and the journals never turned.
I have been told that OEM Honda bearings have different color codes to specify the different tolerances.........but most of the time, the green color code is used. I've also been told that ACL bearings are just as good, but are always a standard tolerance that matches the OEM green tolerance. I need to know if this is a correct statement. If correct then continue reading. If not correct, then what would be the correct statement?
If my crankshaft mics out properly to meet the OEM "green" tolerance, then which bearing would you use? ACL bearings are about half the price of Honda bearings. Are ACL bearings the same quality as OEM Honda?
