The bore of a 95" and a 96" are different....
95" = 3.875
96" = 3.750
95" = 3.875
96" = 3.750

Upon further research, Sonnax does sell some Timken bearings but running that number through the system shows it as being a Sonnax brand and not Timken so I'm not sure which one it will be.

To make things simple I just bought the timken bearings myself and I will take it to the builder if I decide not to give it a go myself. Dawg, by the way, what is your recommended head gasket (size) and do you have any familarity with these copper ones? I did a google on head gaskets and came across another site talking about the copper gaskets. I did a search here but didn't really find anything about them. I have to figure they have been discussed but thought I might as well bring it up (again?). I believe it's from hemrickperformance.

The head gasket thickness all depends on the components such as what they are decking the heads to, etc. I generally use a Cometic .030, but if headwork is being done, I let the person doing the work know that I plan on using that so that they can compensate appropriately. Bean and Springer at Big Boyz have a new head gasket that they came out with, believe it was copper but not sure. You might want to check with them if you are interested in that one. I like the Cometic MLS one, but again you need to work that out with your person doing the headwork.
