ACL Acura B18C1/B18C5 VTEC Standard Size Tri-Metal Rod Bearing Set 1994-2001
$54.45

If you’re looking to push your Acura Integra to the next level, these ACL Race Series Engine Bearings are worth a serious look. Built for the kind of performance you’d expect when you’re revving high and pushing RPMs, they’re designed specifically for the B18C1/B18C5 VTEC engines from 1994 to 2001. Trust me, if you’re serious about your ride, you want bearings that can keep up with your ambitions.

What sets these bearings apart? For starters, they’ve got a high-strength overlay plate that’s thinner than what you might find on standard bearings, which means better fatigue resistance when you’re really pushing your engine. The hardened steel backs on all rod bearings provide solid support for the lining, ensuring they stay put in the housing, even under stress. Plus, with increased crush, you’re looking at improved retention, so you won’t have to worry about them moving around when the heat’s on.

One of the cool features is the elimination of flash plating on the back. This isn’t just a detail; it helps with heat transfer, which is crucial for performance. You want your bearings to run cool and efficient, right? More eccentricity in the design helps account for any bore distortion at those high RPMs, and it aids in forming that all-important hydrodynamic oil film that keeps everything lubricated just right.

And let’s talk about the main bearings. They’ve got a 3/4 groove design that maximizes the load-carrying surface area and improves oil flow to the conrod bearings. It’s all about keeping everything running smoothly, especially when you’re pushing your engine hard. The tight wall tolerances ensure you maintain consistent clearances, which is key for performance builds.

Here are some specs to chew on:

  • Size: STD
  • Oil Clearance: +0.001" Extra
  • Half Type: Identical Halves
  • Material: Tri-metal Hardened Steel Backs
  • Min Std Shaft Size: 1.7707 in / 44.976 mm
  • Max Std Shaft Size: 1.7717 in / 45 mm
  • Min Std Tunnel Size: 1.8898 in / 48 mm
  • Max Std Tunnel Size: 1.8898 in / 48 mm
  • Max Wall at Crown: 0.0586 in / 1.489 mm
  • Max Overall Length: 0.6890 in / 17.5 mm

So if you’re tearing up the streets or just want to make sure your Integra is running at its best, these bearings are a solid choice. They’re not just about numbers; they’re about making sure your engine can handle whatever you throw at it. Get ready to feel the difference.
