I'm building a 393 Cleveland to go into my 70 Cougar, using a cast steel Scat 9000 3.85" stroke crank, a set of Eagle SBC 6" I-beams, and SRP pistons... I bought a full set of Clevite 77 H-series bearings for the rods, mains, and cam, and now after pokin' around a couple forums am wondering if I shoulda went with the P's. I'm building this motor up at my uncle's speed shop, and I'm no pro, should I have gone with a more forgiving bearing? I told my uncle to order me what bearings he thought'd do the best job for me (shift at 6500, he's an old dirt car racer, ran SBC's), and he said the H's would be good for this, but I've been told that they aren't very forgiving
