I have used Federal Mogul bearings in nearly every single LS1 I have built. They are available from Thunder Racing. Here is a link to them on the webpage:

I use federal mogul main bearings, 152M's and clevite connecting rod bearings, cb663H's. Give me a call if you need some.

I used the FM 152m's and m1's (mixed and matched to get clearances right) and the clevite 77 663hx(one though looser). This is with a valvegod ls6 block, used polished stock crank, and la enterprises forged sbc 6.3" rods.. the rods and rod journals were very consistant... a couple mains needed half m1's (.5 though tighter) and one needed a full m1(one though tighter) to tighten up the clearance. I picked up some bearings from my machinist, and some from summit(the undersize FM's).. they definitely had a great price, but no technical help. I had to tell them exactly what I needed and convince them that's what I wanted.
