I've been running a BTT with the 70% cheaper TKO bearing all day today and all day yesterday, and I felt like it worked fine.
If you really want to go crazy you can buy the ceramic $22 Protek bearing
The protek ceramics is what I use for rebuilds. Tolerances are nice and tight. For the price, well worth it even if it only lasts 4 gallon.
