What Bearings to Buy?

Sorry, I posted this earlier in the wrong section so I wanted to repost here to see if I could get an answer.

I am just getting ready to buy my gaskets and bearings for my engine. Now I know that the parts on Pelican Parts are always priced competitively but when I was looking around for bearings I found that I could buy a whole Glyco kit with Main, Intermediate, and Rod bearings for $100. When I looked on the website here the price for all these parts was closer to $250. So I guess my question is why the big spread in price. I thought Glyco was the brand to use for bearings, am I wrong? What brand does PP sell?

Hello

There ain´t much choice as only KS and Glyco manucature main & rod bearings. Tose are also the OEM.

However always check the bearings for propper dimensions especially the #8 OD !!!!!!!
