Well today after much homework and talking to guys whom know bearings; I have found a number for a hybrid ceramic SKF bearing that is off the shelf.

SKF 6204-2rsltn9/hc5c3wt

A chap on BOXA net in the UK dragged a bearing from his 2.5 with this number, so did his car have a ceramic update at some point?!

It is obviously a 6204 but with high temp, high speed, better seals, ceramic balls and composite cages.

They retail for about £70GBP here in UK

The standard 62042RS is about £3.50 - £4 GBP, so quite a jump.

Ive gone for an uprated over standard so high temp and speed, but not ceramic, £16GBP.

Will be sufficient for the time I will have this engine in the car.
