Made my decision btw. Going with 4piston pending they agree to use oem bearings and not ACL.

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

Oh, I have one of those!

ACL uses a standard Honda green bearing i believe. So you really can't control exact tolerances with them. Where as the Honda bearings you can measure exactly what size you need

Gotcha, I have ACL bearings in my bottom end, and I know the machine shop had to use two different sized bearings in some places to get the correct clearances.

They are more meant for racecars where the motor is torn down and rebuilt a lot. Its kind of the same concept as aluminum rods. Also to answer your question from before yes the block will be sleeved. 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.

Gotcha, I was suggest to use them as I was told they hold up to forged internals better than OEM bearings, as my pistons and especially the rods are heavier than stock.

Oem honda bearings are some of the best in the entire auto industry. Acl bearings work great if you have a machinist/builder who is good at what they do
