What's wrong with ACL bearings? Also what are your plans? Will it be a sleeved block? Going for 700+hp?Quote:

I wont be shooting for that much power right away, but I figured while I have everything out I should just go ahead and sleeve it so I wont have to pull it later to get sleeved.Quote:

Nevermind, I can get the authentic BMW setup for like $350. I'm seriously considering it nowQuote:
