My guess is that they are probably pressed formed with no post operation to true them up. Any machine work may weaken them due to the realitively thin wall thickness. Obviously they still have an advantage over cast aluminum in stopping an exploding flywheel, but have their trade offs too.

I'm interested to see if those who have had trouble with needle bearings were running stock bellhousings or aftermarket.
