Bearings for performance build
I am going to rebuild the 2004 LQ4 I just got and I need help on which bearings to use. It will eventually have 10-12 psi of boost once I get the drivetrain/suspension up to par. I thought I would just go nitrous for a little while but I really want a turbo so I scrapped the nitrous. I want this motor to last so I don't want to cut corners. TC76 turbo, Wiseco dished pistons and Eagle h-beam rods with stock crank, head studs and vic jr intake/elbow. 200-4r trans with a 9" rear with 35 spline yukon grizzly locker and 3.90 gears.

Re: Bearings for performance build
I like clevite h series bearings for something like that. That's what I run in my nitrous stuff.

Re: Bearings for performance build
Is there an advantage to using coated bearings?

Re: Bearings for performance build
They give a bit of extra protection if a momentary loss of oil film occurs.
