What is the difference between standard and undersize bearings?

Standard (STD) bearings are used when the crankshaft journals are still within the manufacturer's original specifications. Undersize bearings (like -010 or -020) are used when the crankshaft journals have been machined down to correct for wear or damage.

What is the ACL Race Series overlay material?

The Race Series bearings feature a specialized overlay material developed by ACL. This material is designed to provide increased strength and durability, helping the bearings withstand the higher loads often found in performance or racing engine builds.

Do these bearings come with assembly lube?

This set includes the rod bearings themselves. It is recommended to use a high-quality engine assembly lubricant during installation to ensure proper initial lubrication and protection of the bearing surfaces.
