To answer the question, the best C4 front bearings are SKF F-body bearings as stated. Your info shows an '86 Vette so to be completely honest, I'm not sure they will work for you. It's been a while since I have looked, but I believe the ABS plugs are different.
This is what I used for years on my '96 track car.

so I didn't lose them)
With all of that said, please pay attention to the difference between years. I know these worked on my '96. I don't believe they will work on an '86 for the reasons listed. Perhaps somebody else can verify.

I put 90 Weight oil in the cavity to keep the bearing in a bath of oil on 1 try and that bearing is actually still going strong, or it's just a coincident.
So it will work, assuming the 86 knuckle is like the 90 if you don't need your ABS.
