ACL Race Series Main Bearing Set for Ford/Cosworth 2.0L YB - Standard Size, High Performance
$46.45

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 with a unique blend of design and metallurgy that really stands up to the demands of high RPM driving. Whether you're working with a 4, 6, or 8-cylinder setup, these bearings are designed to handle the heat and stress that comes with pushing your engine to its limits.

Let’s break down what makes these bearings a solid choice:

  • High Strength Overlay: The overlay plate is thinner but stronger, which means better fatigue resistance. You won’t have to worry about them giving out on you during those intense drives.
  • Hardened Steel Backs: All rod bearings come with hardened steel backs. This not only supports the bearing lining but also helps keep everything locked in place within the housing.
  • Increased Crush: More crush means better bearing retention. You need that stability, especially when you’re revving high.
  • No Flash Plating: By eliminating flash plating on the back, these bearings improve heat transfer, which is crucial for keeping your engine cool and performing at its best.
  • Increased Eccentricity: This feature helps compensate for any bore distortion you might encounter at high RPMs and assists in forming those all-important hydrodynamic oil films.
  • 3/4 Grooved Main Bearings: This design optimizes the load-carrying surface area and enhances oil flow to the conrod bearings, which is vital for performance.
  • Tight Wall Tolerances: Consistent wall tolerances mean you can maintain clearances without any guesswork, making installation a breeze.
  • Enlarged ID Chamfers: These are there to accommodate larger fillet radii on performance crankshafts, ensuring a perfect fit.

For those running a Ford/Cosworth 2.0L (YB), this set (part number 5M2167HX-STD) is your go-to. It’s a standard size bearing set with an oil clearance of .001" extra on the standard, giving you that little edge you need in performance.

In short, if you're serious about your engine's performance, these bearings are a no-brainer. They’re built to last and designed to keep your engine running smoothly even when you're pushing it to the max. Grab a set and feel the difference!
