ACL Engine Bearings Standard Size Aluminum Rod Bearing Set for Toyota Paseo 1992-1999 4B8380A-STD - 4B8380A-STD

If you’re diving into the world of high-performance engines, you’ve probably heard about ACL Race Series Engine Bearings. These aren’t just any bearings; they’re crafted with a unique blend of design, metallurgy, and engineering that really stands out when you push your engine to its limits. I’ve had my fair share of experiences with these bearings, especially when it comes to higher RPMs, and let me tell you, they deliver.

One of the first things you’ll notice is the high-strength overlay plate. It’s thinner than what you might expect, but that’s by design—it actually improves fatigue properties, which is crucial when you’re revving high. And if you’re worried about support, the hardened steel backs on the rod bearings really do a great job of keeping everything in place. They help with bearing retention in the housing, so you won’t have to worry about any slip-ups while you’re tearing up the track.

Speaking of support, these bearings come with increased crush, which means they grip better and stay put. Plus, they’ve eliminated the flash plating on the back. This little tweak makes a big difference in heat transfer, ensuring that your engine runs cooler and more efficiently. And let’s not forget about the increased eccentricity; it compensates for bore distortion at high RPMs, helping to form those all-important hydrodynamic oil films.

When it comes to oil flow, the 3/4 grooved main bearings are a game changer. They optimize the load-carrying surface area, making sure that oil flows smoothly to the conrod bearings. Consistency is key in any engine build, and these bearings come with tight wall tolerances, which help maintain those critical clearances. Plus, the enlarged ID chamfers on the edges accommodate larger fillet radii on performance crankshafts—definitely a nice touch for those of us who like to tweak our setups.

Now, if you’re wondering about the specs, ACL Duraglide rod bearings are designed for OEM engines, making them perfect for replacement applications. They’re made from tri-metal, and I can vouch for their durability since I’ve seen them hold up through extensive engine rebuilds. The size here is STD, which fits a range of popular 4, 6, and 8-cylinder applications.

For example, if you’re working on a Toyota Paseo from 1992 to 1999, these bearings (part number 4B8380A-STD) are a solid choice for the 1456cc 3E/3EE and 1497cc 5EFE engines. Trust me, if you’re looking to get the most out of your engine, you’ll want to consider these bearings.
