Alright, gearheads, let's talk about the ACL Race Series Engine Bearings. If you’re pushing your engine to the limits, you need bearings that can keep up. These aren’t just any bearings; they’re designed for serious performance. Whether you’ve got a 4, 6, or 8-cylinder setup, these bad boys are built to handle higher RPMs without breaking a sweat.

What Makes Them Stand Out:

  • High Strength Overlay: The overlay plate is thinner but tougher, which means better fatigue resistance. Perfect for those high-rev situations.
  • Hardened Steel Backs: All rod bearings come with hardened steel backs. This helps support the lining and keeps everything snug in its housing.
  • Increased Crush: This feature boosts bearing retention, so you won’t have to worry about them shifting around when the engine gets hot.
  • No Flash Plating: Forget about that extra layer that can mess with heat transfer. These bearings are designed to maximize grip and efficiently transfer heat.
  • Increased Eccentricity: This compensates for bore distortion at high RPMs, helping to create those all-important hydrodynamic oil films.
  • 3/4 Grooved Main Bearings: This design optimizes the load-carrying surface area and ensures oil flows smoothly to the conrod bearings.
  • Tight Wall Tolerances: Consistency is key. These bearings maintain tight tolerances, so you get reliable clearances every time.
  • Enlarged ID Chamfers: Where needed, these chamfers accommodate large fillet radii on performance crankshafts. No more worrying about fit issues!

Specifications:

  • Sizes: STD, .025, .25, 0.5
  • Oil Clearance: Standard
  • Half Type: Identical Halves
