Duratec bearings

Hi,
Can anyone recommend me some good heavy duty big end and main bearings please for a supercharged set up??
Thought its best to ask people who ave used them rather than just reading websites.
many thanks

Burton power sell them.

I will be importing some from the states in the next month.

How desperate are you? If not in too much of a hurry I can add another set to my order? They rod bearings are $59.99 so about half the price of over here. Clevite brand.

Its the big ends that are the problem. Not heard of issues with mains.

Cheers,
David

Is the american Duratec the same engine as the european? I have noticed that the american has lower CR.
