And can we just send a set of OEM bearings to Calico and get them coated?

I was told by several people to just run coated OEM instead... not sure why

Edit: Actually not several.. more like a couple of people.

Suggestions regarding the oil pump. That seems to be a weak issue with this engine.
Other than the NISMO race pump for $$$$, Any ideas on blue printing or upgrading internal rotor

I can think of a couple choices for our OEM crank bearings: coatings and shot peening. I might consider shot peening various engine parts. If possible, perhaps coat it as well.

There is a company here in Tampa that coats them. now for the draw back...You have to take in count the thickness of the coating. Nissan makes a dozen types of engine bearings. We have to order one of every size and test fit them in our blocks. Long process!!

Not a big FAN of ACL, considering they went out of business couple years back.

Wow that is a Great price!!! I'm sure most are wondering why my cost was a lot more but it was due to going with a long block instead of a short block. To anyone interested I will be selling the heads, crank, timing cover/chain etc from my old motor.
