Bearings ARE metric and 35x15x11 is a std size, but NOT 34mm OD. Non exist. This is from bearing houses coast to coast.

Also, we've gone through all the bearings that merc lists and NONE are 34mm OD.

The reamer ID is intriguing. I have many machine size reamers, but none that large. Something that's 34mm is going to be MUCH more than $8, but it's still a viable option (if I can find a bottom reamer for the shallow crank relief?)
