My friend had a Zex kit on his ricey Integra. I wouldn't trust their quality anywhere near that of the quality of NX or TNT.

Zex is made by Comp Cams, not bad quality

Had one on a civic for over a year worked great

I am going to go with a larger cam for nitrous soon but my buddy made 370 rwhp on a CC306 with stock untouched heads. If you have alot of miles on your LT1 then i may worry about it but if not then don't worry about the bearings...
