With the LN bearing, you generally receive a fully installed price from your mechanic. The mechanic removes the transmission, inspects the exterior cover of the bearing which tells him which bearing he needs. If he does a lot of these, maybe he even has one of each on hand. Maybe it takes and extra day or two while the right bearing comes to your mechanic. The only extra labor would be moving the car off the lift to sit somewhere and then rolling the car back on the lift. But if he is experienced in doing these, he figures that in to the price.
There are mechanics in Britain who are experienced in doing this. Ask on boxa.net who they are.
Be also aware that there are two versions of LN bearing especially for the single row early version engines so be specific about which you are going to use. One version even converts the single row to a double row. Somewhat more expensive but expected longer life.
The LN bearings are well proven with tens of thousands of installs over many millions of miles and over 15k car/years. Hundreds of forum postings about them both in the US and UK.
The eternal claim is marketing. Few postings on the forums from people who have used them. Time measured in years and miles measured in millions will tell how good they are.
