Thx JFP, you seem to carry more expertise on the subject than I, by far.

I was reluctant to use the LN bearing. Way overpriced and they still recommend regular changes. The $800 part seems to be good basic engineering but still does not fix the root problem of the design and it is WAY overpriced. The $1700 better LN "solution" option is just stupid priced. I elected to try the PelicanParts $200 bearing and swap it out every 40k miles, and could put in a new clutch (for free) at the same time with the $600 savings vs LN. I spoke to PelicanParts sales and they have reported no failures to date with their solution.

Given what you know, with my engine in full teardown and I have the option to still go with any bearing option and/or oiling option, what do you recommend?
