Question 1

What does 'trimetal' mean?

Accepted Answer

Trimetal bearings have three distinct layers of metal. This design gives a strong bearing surface with good embeddability, meaning it can absorb small particles of dirt without damaging the crankshaft.

Question 2

Do I need to measure my crankshaft before ordering?

Accepted Answer

It's always a good idea to measure your crankshaft journals before ordering bearings. If the crankshaft has been ground undersize, you'll need undersize bearings to maintain proper oil clearance.

Question 3

What is 'plastigaging'?

Accepted Answer

Plastigage is a method of checking bearing clearance during engine assembly. You place a small piece of plastigage on the bearing surface, torque the rod cap, and then measure the flattened plastigage to determine the clearance.
