Just to update this thread for any future searchers, after taking a close look at these vac bearings I realized that even though I had ordered their custom clevite extra clearance bearings they actually sent coated oem 702 bearings and my installer didn't catch it. So the bearings in this thread are actually not representative of the custom vac bearings. I was very disappointed with this because I was under the impression that lead could be tracked with these and that they had extra clearance like BE, but that is not the case as the clearance measurements in this thread show. And the uoa's I ran were pretty useless as obviously there is no lead in the 702/3 bearings. Apparently VAC uses the same part number for both styles of bearings and sends whatever is in stock at the time of order. There are other members on this board who have also received coated oems when ordering the custom bearings so buyer beware on these.
