Default Oversize conrod bearings?

Hi All,

Its been a while since ive been on here but ive now encountered a problem. I have an M96.22 motor here thats spun a bearing due to guide failure and the resultant material passing through it. Its only taken out number 1 cylinder bearing but obviously when rebuilding motors everything needs to be balanced up, so everything needs to match. This leaves me with the option of having the crank ground however finding oversize bearings for this motor seems to be near impossible?? or incredibly expensive for such a common engine? Is this right? Every other engine ive ever build the bearings have been very easy to come by....

Does anyone have a source or links to oversize bearings that dont cost more per pair than a full set of OEM?

Thanks!!
