Default need cam bearing part number ASAP!!!!!

I need to order a new set of cam bearings for my rebuild. I looked on my F-body parts CD and came up with:

Bearing #1 and #5 = 12453167
Bearing #2 and #4 = 12453168
Bearing #3 = 12453169

but when I go to put the part numbers in at GM Parts direct, each part number says "ALL" and it lists at $71.60? Whats going on?

If you are looking for gen 3 bearings there is 3 different sizes in each set.
The factory bearings are sold individually at a very high price.
Clevite sells them for under 30$ a box under part number SH 1814S
Sealed power/ Federal mogul sells them under part number 1888M.

If your block was produced after aug. 2003 it needs a different bearing that is not serviced yet.

Thats what I need (bearings for my 01 block). I called Napa but neither of those numbers worked in their system. Where did you get yours?

If I can get one of those numbers (SH 1814S or 1888M), the box will have all 5 bearings right?

All five bearings for around 30 dollars is the norm....All five in one box

I buy direct from Clevite and Federal mogul

We have the Federal Mogul 1888M's on the website in the bearings section. They are $22.99 for the set.
