I haven't been a big fan of the "tuner" exhaust systems as of late. but my existing 2 1/2" pipes looked like pea shooters. So I broke down and picked up 2 - 3 1/2 " resinator tips. They look much better and give the new V-8 a deep droan.

If the motor was bored oversize sbc's tend to run hotter the thinner the cylinderwalls get. Also a new motor will be hotter than a broken in motor. You might want to get a stethescope and listen to the stuff you suspect before you start taking things off. Even if the squeel is gone a dry bearing will sound really loud with a stethoscope. Also listen to the top bushing in the dist it can get dry setting, it will usually turn and get the motor out of time when it galls though. If you suspect bearings you can check the oil for residue you know.
