These kits on ebay seem like a good deal.... Eagle rods and Vitara's. Just wanted some feedback from anyone who has used them ,

PR.. that's probably you know who selling that ----. (fjt)
It looks good though. Everything you need one stop shopping.
Has anyone polished the tops of some Vitaras? Would this provide any benefit like less surface area for better cooling or anything?

Eagle retail is $320. TT rods are 250, not Eagle.

But see, to size bearings you need a set of standard size bearings, which the ACLs are perfect for. Whichever ones are out of spec you buy at a Honda dealer, and it's all good. Usually though a decent crank doesn't need the red bearings or whichever ones are the thickest. I think ACLs come in 2 sizes, green and yellow, but OEMs have 2 or 3 bigger sizes than that.
