Uprated Main Bearings

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any companies that offer uprated (perferably trimetal) main crank bearings for the MINI Cooper S?

I was thinking possibly Vandervell? ACL don't seem to be making them yet for the new MINI...

Have any of the race teams/engine builders seen reason to change to uprated bearings over the rolled aluminium/carbon OEM items?

Many thanks

Henry

I know that this isn't your usual kind of question, but someone must have some input?!

Bump!
