Here's the message I sent without the baggage of the attached thread 
message(s) so it will be small enough to make it out without 
moderator approval:

I run the coating from Calico Coatings www.calicocoatings.com that 
Jack recommended ages ago.  I use this on the mains and the rod 
bearings.  I buy the King tri-metal bearings that BPNW sells and send 
them off to be coated prior to assembly.  The local speed shop uses 
it on a lot of the V-8's they build.  The last couple of rebuilds the 
bearings looked great - don't have it apart from last year 
yet.  Before the coating I would always have a certain amount of bearing wear.

I run the Valvoline VR1 synthetic after breakin (20w50).
