Seven bucks. Mounts in the convertor register, avoids the pilot counterbore issue entirely.
You hit the nail on the head.
I've used these a few times, and with great success.
To the O.P., use this bearing and forget about the ovalled out pilot bushing hole in the end of your crank.
I also think using the bearing is actually better than the factory bushing anyway.........
