The ACL 8B1580HX-STD rod bearing set is engineered specifically for the BMW M3 (E90) S65 V8 engine, delivering the high-performance attributes necessary for high RPM applications. This set combines advanced metallurgy with precision engineering to meet the demands of serious automotive enthusiasts.

Key Features

  • High Strength Overlay Plate: The reduced thickness of the overlay enhances fatigue resistance, ensuring durability under extreme conditions.
  • Hardened Steel Backs: Each rod bearing features hardened steel backs that improve support for the bearing lining and enhance retention within the housing.
  • Increased Crush: Designed with increased crush for superior bearing retention, this feature ensures stability during operation.
  • Optimized Heat Transfer: The elimination of flash plating on the back of the bearings improves heat dissipation, maximizing grip between the bearings and their housing.
  • Enhanced Eccentricity: Increased eccentricity compensates for bore distortion at high RPM, aiding the formation of hydrodynamic oil films for better lubrication.
  • 3/4 Grooved Main Bearings: This design optimizes the bearing load-carrying surface area and enhances oil flow to the connecting rod bearings.
  • Tight Wall Tolerances: Consistent wall tolerances help maintain precise clearances, crucial for high-performance applications.
  • Enlarged ID Chamfers: Bearing edges are chamfered where necessary to accommodate large fillet radii on performance crankshafts.

Specifications

  • Material: Aluminum Tin, providing the reliability needed for high-performance engines.
  • Available Bearing Sizes: STD, .025, .25, allowing for flexibility in engine builds.

The ACL 8B1580HX-STD rod bearing set is a critical component for any BMW M3 (E90) S65 V8 engine aiming for peak performance. With its robust construction and meticulous design, it stands ready to support your high RPM driving needs.
