I dont have them on the Riverway Racing website but can get them for you. Save you a few bucks.

Why ceramic? What's the benefit? They seem very expensive in my ignorant mind.

They have less friction and they last alot longer. But yeah, the cost is a little unreasonable. At most i've heard they translate to 1hp, but i figured if i ever need new bearings it might be a nice way to go

Wow, that's overkill. Guess I learned my new thing for the day.
