Default pilot bearings

hello im new at this, just joined... well anyway i got a 96 honda accord lx 5 speed which im having problems with the clutch. Car is slipin its ok when im not punch the gas pedal, but when i do it revs like as if the car is on neutral. but anyway i went ahead and brought a new clutch kit from e bay... the f1 series and when i seen it. didnt came with a pilot bearing i call around auto zone and a coulpe of other places n they dont have it ether... check the internet for other brands and every brand i look up for kits does not come with a pilot bearing. so can someone please help me on this brain stomp.... P.S. i also try just looking for the pilot bearing alone without kit... none for the 96 honda accord

Most flywheels come with a pilot bushing or a pilot bearing (if applicable) already installed. Even if you were to find a pilot bearing (which I don't find any separately available for the 1996 Accords), it may not fit the inner diameter of the flywheel opening of the one you purchased. A pilot bearing may not be applicable with what you purchased.

You might want to call your local honda dealership.
