Advice needed for tuning my S3 8L

[hydro s3]

Might seem a silly question but what is the difference between the coated bearings and the none coated ones?

The coating?

good thread i'm on a rebuild job right now. I'm working my nads off to pay for the parts & get the work done. So far its mot 1st then the blocks coming out and getting it reconed with new pistons and rings. While it's out i'm going after market con rods and valves (probably bills & DM forged). Then custom built 3 inch down pipe into sport cat. After its a hybrid ko3/ko4 and usual stage 2 extras.

Any recommendations on rods and valves would be welcomed [let's keep it on topic]
