I think Mark sums it up pretty good...

$8 or $85 for a pilot bushing depending on your level of risk management

I appreciate the vendors making parts for us, but I feel this thread (heated exchanges notwithstanding) provided a lot of value in discussing alternatives.

I used a Timken Needle Bearing - based on expert advice and the fact that these bearings have run in millions of cars for many years.

Here's a list of what I think works (YMMV) - I got one of these...

Pilot Bearing:

Summit: Ford D8TZ-7600-A
NAPA: FC-65662

Pilot Bushing:

RAM BU50J - Bronze, Non-Magnetic ($12 at Summit)
McLeod PN 8-1380-2
Pioneer PB-50J
Dorman 14656

Kevlar Pilot Bushing:

Southbend Clutch 50MHDK
