ACL Race Series Inline 4 High Performance Rod Bearings for Toyota 1RZ, 2RZ, 3RZ - STD Size
$62.45

If you're diving into the world of high-performance engines, you know that every little detail counts. That's where the ACL Race Series Engine Bearings come into play. These aren't just any bearings; they’re crafted to handle the intense demands of higher RPMs without breaking a sweat. Whether you’re running a 4, 6, or 8-cylinder setup, these bearings are designed to keep your engine humming smoothly.

One of the standout features is the high-strength overlay plate. It’s thinner than what you might find on standard bearings, which actually enhances fatigue resistance. This means you can push your engine harder without worrying about wear and tear. Plus, the hardened steel backs on all rod bearings provide solid support for the lining, ensuring they stay put even under the most demanding conditions.

Let’s talk about retention—these bearings have increased crush, which helps them stay firmly in place. And the elimination of flash plating on the back? That’s a game-changer for heat transfer. It means better grip between the bearing and housing, which is crucial when your engine gets hot and heavy.

Another clever design detail is the increased eccentricity. This feature compensates for any bore distortion that tends to happen at high RPMs, helping to form those all-important hydrodynamic oil films. You’ll also appreciate the 3/4 grooved main bearings. They optimize the load-carrying surface area and ensure oil flows smoothly to the conrod bearings, keeping everything lubricated and happy.

When it comes to precision, these bearings don’t skimp. They boast tight, consistent wall tolerances to help you maintain clearances that are spot-on. And if you're working with performance crankshafts, the enlarged ID chamfers on the bearing edges are there to accommodate those larger fillet radii.

In terms of specifications, the ACL Race Series bearings are built to endure the rigors of high RPM conditions. You can find them in sizes like STD, .025, and .25, making it easier to find the right fit for your setup. Take the 4B8376HX-STD for instance; it’s perfect for Toyota 1RZ, 2RZ, and 3RZ inline 4 engines, offering extra oil clearance for that added peace of mind.

So, if you’re serious about performance and want bearings that can keep up with your ambitions, the ACL Race Series is definitely worth a look. They combine solid engineering with real-world performance, and that’s exactly what you need when you’re pushing your engine to the limit.
