Hi All.
Fag is a NU306E XLM1C3, Zeus is a NU306EMC3.
Same size and weight.
Zeus has the internal that comes out both side, Fag one side only.
I would use Zeus.
Do yiu know thus Zeus brand?.
Thank you.

The FAG bearing should therefore be NJ306E.

NU is not the correct bearing.

If you used them as a pair the crankshaft would be able to move 0.019" each way axially (plus any existing end float) compared to the correct shouldered bearing and the crankshaft cheek would rub on the outer.
The Indian bearings are as good as anything unless you found new old stock originals.
