Hello Ben,
the bearings came from THE source in Torino. Everybody here will know. But this quality problem of reproduced spares keeps chasing me... (now with the Flaminia).

Don't know about Aprilia, but in the Aurelia, the change to thin shell bearings, and a modern filter also called for changing the oil pump to the later series, higher capacity one. Wasn't a problem, tho.

www.serdi.co.uk   and http://chaseengineservices.co.uk/ both do white metalling and all Vintage engine work.  I have used both and they both do work of the highest quality.   Serdi have worked on  my Lambda and my Aprilia and Chase on the Lambda.   I don't really see the need to put a modern filter on with shells - difficult in an Aprilia - so long as you change the oil frequently.   I have excellent oil pressure with the standard pump - never out of normale even when hot.   On the other hand, if someone would like to design an adaptor for the Aprilia???  Lambdas have been converted but that is much easier as there is already a nice big filter housing.

I've been running the Aprilia on shell bearings since the early 1980's without any problems, the oil pressure is excellent, but with any Aprilia you should change the oil regularly because the filter is not brilliant , shell bearings or no shell bearings
