The OEM Glyco bearings seem sufficient for our use. Apparently there's been some QC issues with them in recent past and the pro builders have resorted to sourcing the bearings from Porsche dealer directly. That said, I recently received some OEM Glycos from Pelican and they seem OK to my inexperienced eye.
For SC rod bearings I went with the 996.103.121.94 GT3 rod bearings. If those can spin to 8000+, they're good enough for my mild 3.2 engine.
Yep I noticed the SmartRacing shutdown too. I heard that Flying Lizards took over the SRP operation sometime in 2010 or 2011? Dunno what that means for the future but it doesn't look good so far, considering the website's been shut down. I have to think the Jerry Woods end of things is still doing his thing, as he is/was the source of SRP's engine part offerings. Their addresses are in the same building complex. Try giving Jerry Woods a call?
