If you're diving into the world of performance engines, you know that the right bearings can make all the difference. That’s where these ACL Race Series Engine Bearings come into play. They’re not just any bearings; they’re designed for those high RPM moments when you really need your engine to perform. Whether you're working on a 4, 6, or 8-cylinder setup, these bearings have got you covered.

So, what makes these bearings stand out? For starters, they've got a high-strength overlay plate that's thinner than what you usually find. This means better fatigue resistance, which is crucial when you're pushing your engine to its limits. Plus, the hardened steel backs on the rod bearings provide solid support for the lining, making sure they stay put in the housing even under intense conditions.

  • With increased crush, these bearings hold onto their spot better, so you won’t have to worry about them shifting around.
  • No flash plating on the back means heat transfer is improved, keeping things cooler and more efficient.
  • They’ve got increased eccentricity too, which helps deal with bore distortion at those high RPMs and aids in forming the hydrodynamic oil films you need.
  • The 3/4 grooved main bearings optimize the load carrying surface area and oil flow to the conrod bearings, ensuring everything runs smoothly.
  • Consistent wall tolerances help maintain clearances, so you get reliable performance every time.
  • And let’s not forget the enlarged ID chamfers on the edges, designed to fit those performance crankshafts perfectly.

Now, let’s talk specs. These bearings are available in sizes STD, 001, 009, 010, 011, and 020, with standard oil clearance. They come in upper and lower half types, made from a tough blend of aluminum, tin, and silicon. The dimensions are precise, with a minimum standard shaft size of 2.099 inches and a maximum of 2.1 inches. The tunnel sizes range from 2.2247 inches to 2.2252 inches, with a max wall at the crown of 0.0619 inches and an overall length of 0.8366 inches.

These bearings are a perfect fit for a range of Chevy models, including:

  • Chevrolet Avalanche (2007-2013)
  • Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 (2002-2006)
  • Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 (2002-2006)
  • Chevrolet Bel Air (1950-1975 & 1981)
  • Chevrolet Express (1996-2020)

So, if you’re looking to push your engine further and need bearings that can hang with you, these ACL Race Series Engine Bearings are worth considering. They’re built for the real deal, not just for show.
