I seem to remember there was a lot of trouble getting Vandervell bearings as 
far back as 
1992 and that Vandervell was actually bought out by AE... 

...for a short time AE bearings were actually supplied in Vandervell boxes... 
and I
think TRF said that it would supply Vandervell's "only, when they were 
available".... I
think there's lots of Triumph engines that Vandervells haven't been available 
for for a
long, long, time....

Then again, just last year, my Alfa Romeo buddy got Vandervells for his 3.0 V6 
... at 
least they came in a Vandervell box... hmmmm

...anyway my point is if Heritage is reproducing them, they're probably not 
available 
anymore from the original source AND just because they come in a Vandervell box 
is no 
guarantee that they are really are Vandervell type bearings... bummer :>(
