where to get good pilot bushing

It seems everyone is more for the bushing than the bearing, so I guess I'll go bushing. I just don't know where to get a good one, not some chinese POS one.

^^Not necessarily, they make alot of good Bearings.

I'm going Bronze busing my self, so I'm interested as well as to where you find one.'

I have an Eagle Crank, so I hope it will take the normal LS1 one.

Bushing is solid, Bearings consists of Rollers in this case.
It's a funny terminology, cause Engine Bearings are called "Bearings" when technically they are Bushings.
