I went with ACL on my build, see sig.

350whp is nothing though, any reason why you're going 2.3?

I went with ACL Race and ACL Aluglide thrust for my 2.3 because MAP uses them on their builds and recommends them. IMO though, both bearings are well named brands so you won't go wrong with either choice.
