ACL Mitsubishi Standard Size Rod Bearing Set 4B1146A-STD for 1990-2017 Eclipse, Galant, Lancer
$9.45

Alright, let’s talk about the ACL Race Series Engine Bearings. If you’re pushing your engine to the limits, these bearings are designed to keep up. Built with a unique blend of design and metallurgy, they’re made for those high RPM conditions where you really need reliability. Whether you’re rocking a 4, 6, or 8-cylinder setup, these bearings have got you covered.

What’s so special about them?

  • First off, the high-strength overlay plate is thinner, which means better fatigue resistance. That’s crucial when your engine is working hard.
  • They’ve got hardened steel backs on all rod bearings, giving you solid support and helping keep the bearings locked in place. No one wants a bearing that’s moving around in the housing!
  • With increased crush, these bearings stay put, which is a must for performance engines.
  • They’ve eliminated flash plating on the back, improving heat transfer. This means they can handle the heat better and stick to their housing like glue.
  • Increased eccentricity helps counteract bore distortion at high RPMs, which is key for creating those hydrodynamic oil films that keep everything lubricated.
  • The 3/4 grooved main bearings optimize the load-bearing surface and oil flow to your conrod bearings. More oil where it’s needed!
  • Consistent wall tolerances help you maintain those all-important clearances for smooth operation.
  • And let’s not forget the enlarged ID chamfers on the edges, perfect for those performance crankshafts with larger fillet radii.

Let’s get into some specs:

  • Sizes available: STD, .025, .25
  • Oil clearance: Standard
  • Half type: Identical halves
  • Material: Tri-metal with hardened steel backs
  • Minimum standard shaft size: 1.7713in / 44.991mm

  • Max wall at crown: 1.8898in / 48.000mm
  • Max overall length: 1.8898in / 48.000mm
