Cam bearings are King's but I don't know part number. The pan is a 7 quart Moroso which is basically a stock pan with a deeper sump, nothing special. I run 6 quarts of Penn 10-30. It's possible that I have the pickup to close to the pan. I recently read a post that said it should be about 1/2" and I've always put mine at 1/4 to 3/8.
