I know there are many that have not experienced issues with King bearings and will vouch for them.
Due to the issues, others and I have experienced with King bearings, I have not used them since 2017. My "to go" bearings are ACL, Clevite, and when I can find them, Speed Pro. In 2017, we had issues with several Trophy Truck engines with King Bearings. Switched to Clevite and ACL and no more issues.

The pictures below are issues that some other engine builders have experienced with King bearings:
