ACL High Performance Main Bearing Set .001 Oversized for Ford 4.0L AU/BA 6cyl 1955-1970
$132.95

Alright, let’s talk about these ACL Race Series Engine Bearings. If you're pushing your engine to the limit, you know how crucial it is to have the right bearings in place. These aren't just any bearings; they're crafted to handle the demands of high RPM situations, making them a solid choice for those of us who like to get our engines revving.

What sets these bearings apart? For starters, they feature a high-strength overlay plate that’s thinner than what you might find on typical bearings. This isn’t just for show—it helps reduce fatigue, which is key when you’re running your engine hard. Plus, the hardened steel backs on all the rod bearings provide extra support for the lining, ensuring they stay put in the housing even under stress.

One thing I really appreciate is the increased crush on these bearings. It means they grip better, which is essential for keeping everything in place during those intense drives. And forget about flash plating on the backs; these bearings are designed for maximum heat transfer, so they can dissipate heat efficiently and maintain a solid grip with the housing.

High RPM can cause bore distortion, but these bearings have increased eccentricity to tackle that issue. They help in forming hydrodynamic oil films, which is crucial for keeping everything lubricated and running smoothly. The 3/4 grooved main bearings are also a nice touch—they optimize the load-carrying surface area and ensure that oil flows freely to the conrod bearings, which is what you want when you’re pushing your engine.

When it comes to fitment, these bearings are available in sizes STD, 001, 010, and 020, so you can find the right one for your setup. They’re a perfect match for classic rides like the Ford Fairlane (1955-1970) and Ford Falcon (1960-1970), particularly if you’re working with the 4.0L AU/BA 6-cylinder engine.

So, if you're looking to beef up your engine's performance and reliability, these ACL Race Series Engine Bearings are definitely worth considering. They’ve got the specs and the engineering to back them up, so you can focus on what really matters—hitting the road and enjoying the ride.
