ACL 8B663H-STD Race Series Standard Size Conrod Rod Bearing Set

The ACL 8B663H-STD conrod rod bearing set is engineered for high-performance applications, specifically designed to meet the demands of racing and spirited driving. This set is part of ACL's Race Series, known for its advanced metallurgy and precise engineering that ensures reliability under extreme conditions.

Key Features

  • Constructed with a high-strength overlay plate that features a reduced thickness, enhancing fatigue resistance for higher RPM operations.
  • Includes hardened steel backs on all rod bearings, providing improved support for the bearing lining and ensuring secure retention within the housing.
  • Designed with increased crush to enhance bearing retention, minimizing the risk of movement during operation.
  • Flash plating has been eliminated from the back of the bearings, which improves heat transfer and maximizes grip between the bearings and their housing.
  • Increased eccentricity compensates for bore distortion at high RPM, facilitating the formation of hydrodynamic oil films for optimal lubrication.
  • Features 3/4 grooved main bearings that optimize the load-carrying surface area and enhance oil flow to the conrod bearings.
  • Manufactured with tight, consistent wall tolerances to maintain precise clearances, crucial for performance applications.
  • Enlarged ID chamfers are included where necessary to accommodate large fillet radii on performance crankshafts.
