[Fot] Coated Bearing source

I also buy the king tri-metal bearings from the usual suppliers and send them to Calico Coatings.  

On my latest engine build, the rod bearing clearance was too large.  Calico was able to spray the coating an extra 1/2 a thousandth per shell which reduced my bearing clearance to the proper amount.

I buy my TR-4 tri-metal bearings from BP Northwest and then send them to Calico Coatings for that part.  Not exactly what you're looking for, but Calico Coatings is who I've used for over 10 years and am very happy with.  Just be sure to mail them them Denver North Carolina - I once sent to Denver Colorado instead.  That was a delay of game.
