Can anyone suggest a supplier and rough cost for a set of main and big end bearings for the above? Looking for standard size fitment. Cheers

theres not really a standard size if you want oe bearings as the cranks are graded, although bmw factory bearing clearance is tighter than most (certainly our formula renault engine) so aftermarket bearings get away with one size in the middle of the range.
your crank should be coded either red yellow or blue and a dealer or place supplying oem bearings will ask for this.
aftermarket bearings are a lot cheaper though and iv certainly not had issue with them before provided a reputable supplier is used. (put 50k hard miles on the last build with out any issue, federal mogul AE shells stock crank)
