Budget Build 5.9 for a 71 Scamp

Cool. Would you recommend the clevite P series (CB481P8) for the connecting rod bearings as well? Thanks.

Haven't checked the old bearings yet, I won't place the order for new bearings until I do.
Yes I would. The clevite p series is an excellent bearing.
I use a different bearing (and manufacturer, King) for very high hp stuff but for stock up to about 500hp and depending on usage, I use the P series clevite.
