Napa carries a Taiho set for much cheaper than the dealer. (TaiHo is the same brand that OEM uses)

Exception to the rule. They're made slightly undersized so they can be sixed for your oil pump drive shaft.

So its still going to fit.

Yes, but I still had my machine shop put mine in because they had the right equipment and shaved them to fit exactly right.

In the block, yes. The oil pump drive shaft may not fit, or be too tight.

The SIP bearing fit with no modification. I have a cam bearing tool and i drove them in myself. Clearence was in spec. Check my build thread.

That was a dura bond bearing set. They do fit most times without needing to size them. The OEM bearings come slightly over oversize and most times need to be sized. I have a pic of the tool I made in "members rides".
