Itll come down to personal preference, Alot are gonna chime in and say clevite, which have been around forever, and some will say Federal mogul, etc etc... I ran clevites in all my engines, and never lost one to a bearing failure, However after some research during the build of my new 383 I decided to go with the new KING allecular pro series, heard nothing but good about them, and lunati puts them in with their stroker kits, I think I made a wise choice but only time will tell.
