Those are nice, but I think you should talk to a shop, like Piers Diesel.

Regardless of bearings, its all about spoolup, airflow, and your setup, where do you plan to go down the road etc..

You really need to talk to someone that can customize your turbo to fit your application and what you want to get out of it.

Which truck are you putting this on the 95 or 98?

With your 95 with stock sticks, I'd just keep the 35 and make it a hybrid 40.

With the 98 since you have the 370's, you'll need airflow to keep the heat down, but you'll also need some good fuel to spool it up also.

Maybe an SPS 62/14 is in something to look at? I'm not a expert, but from other posts its looks to be a nice one.

Well here's where this thing is goin...the 95 will be getting the 370's and 191's out of the 98 which is going back to stock. However, I can't do that until I get a turbo which will support it. But I also can't afford a $1000 turbo upgrade either, the woman is ****** as is, and since I need a rebuild anyways I figured I might as well skip it and buy a new (to me anyways) turbo. I might be able to pick up a decent HX-40W for about $300, so if I can get that, I'll run it til it dies then look into an SPS 62 or 64... but for now I just can't justify it...
