I ended up having to get cosworth bearings instead. Good luck!
I pieced everything together myself, I ordered everything as 7-bolt EVO specific but I haven't even got around to test fitting the bearings on the rods and crank yet. Bearings are ACL.

Compression is standard 9:1.

Manifold is a RNR ramhorn that I scored on e-bizzle for $200.

I'm going to remove the stubby balance shaft and I'm going to turn down the large one for clearance on a lathe. I'll basically be doing what AMS sells as their race motor balance shaft, or what JAM does in their strokers. I actually asked JAM to sell me their stroker specific balance shafts because I feel they are the correct solution, but they wouldn't. Maybe I'll offer them myself once I finish mine!
