Greg.
I am re-assembling my ARE 378 ci this weekend and Nick told me to use Clevite 77 rod bearings, Federal Mogul Main bearings and Speed Pro camshaft bearings.

I cant belive they arent answering the phone. Just about everytime I have called there I have talked to Nick personally.
He always took the time to answer all my questions and is a great guy.
