I follow their recommendations.
One of my mentors Notes that a bronze bushing often comes loose and spins in the crankshaft..........I like the Needle Pilot Bearing and I make sure it is well lubed as well as the Throwout Bearing ID and Transmission Collar and pivots of the Clutch Fork.

We stock the "bearing" just for you Cliff, because you're such a good customer and have so many LT5 engines & ZR-1's!

Jerry.......I should not admit this in public.....but without your parts I would say the fun of fixing/restoring/modifying LT5s would not exist. And I will admit this in public......your prices are very reasonable and your packaging is exceptionally perfect and your shipping speed is about as fast as my ZR-1s...........which is very fast
