ACL Toyota 3SGTE Standard Size Main Bearing Set 5M8361A-STD Tri-Metal Engine Bearings
$13.95

If you're diving into the world of performance engines, you know that the right bearings can make all the difference. The ACL Race Series Engine Bearings are designed for those who push their engines to the limit, whether you're racing on the track or just want to give your daily driver a little extra oomph. These aren't your average bearings; they’re built to handle the high RPMs that come with serious driving.

What sets these apart?

  • First off, the high-strength overlay plate is thinner but tougher, which means better fatigue resistance. That's crucial when you're revving high.
  • All rod bearings come with hardened steel backs. This not only supports the bearing lining but also helps keep everything in place, even under stress.
  • They’ve increased the crush on these bearings for better retention. You don’t want them moving around when you’re pushing your engine.
  • Forget about flash plating on the back; these bearings are designed for better heat transfer. This means they stay cooler and grip better in their housing.
  • With increased eccentricity, they compensate for any bore distortion at high RPMs. This helps in forming hydrodynamic oil films, ensuring smooth operation.
  • The 3/4 grooved main bearings optimize the load-carrying surface area and improve oil flow to the conrod bearings, which is a game-changer for performance.
  • Consistent wall tolerances mean you can maintain tight clearances, which is essential for performance engines.
  • They’ve even enlarged the ID chamfers on the edges where needed, accommodating those beefy fillet radii on performance crankshafts.
