I went with the cheap bearing because I'm planning to do a full tear-down of the engine in the next year and a half. The pelican parts people I think had this in mind, and the kit was intended to be a stop gap. If I were not going to do any motor mods I would of used the ceramic bearing and drove it until the car died.
