You'd have to do that with the stock bearings anyways... The stock ones are just going to get you closer to the correct specs. ACL's and Napa bearings I beleive are just the Green bearing which is about the middle size.

napa told me it was gonna be 137 dollars for the main/rod/thrust bearings!! does that sound right? i read in your lsvtec twin turbo post that they were only 22 for a LS??

no, but this is how you do it..

Call up Napa and tell them this "hi this is Jerry from Dodge Johnson Motors (or whatever a local dealership is) up the street. I'm looking for a set of main & rod bearings for a 96 Honda Del Sol (Dohc vtec). Oh also can you make this transaction Cash + Tax, this is for my personal car and no need to deliver I will come pick them right up.

Walah, you got yourself 15% off, and if they ask you for a PO, just put your name.

It's as simple as bred and butter :)
