What does the '.001' undersize mean for these bearings?

The '.001' indicates that these bearings are manufactured to be 0.001 inches smaller in diameter than the standard size. This is necessary when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.001 inches during an engine rebuild or repair to correct wear or damage.

Are these bearings suitable for a stock engine rebuild?

These are ACL Race Series bearings, designed with performance in mind. While they can be used in a stock rebuild, they are particularly well-suited for engines that see higher performance use or have had their crankshafts machined to an undersize.

What is the primary function of rod bearings?

Rod bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. Their main job is to reduce friction and wear by providing a smooth, low-friction surface for the rotating crankshaft, while also maintaining the critical oil clearance needed for proper lubrication.

Product Details

This ACL Race Series rod bearing set is built for GM Gen V LT1 6.2L engines, commonly found in the Chevrolet Camaro and Corvette. These bearings are precision-sized at .025mm, or 0.001 inches, undersize. This specific sizing is crucial when rebuilding or refreshing an engine where the crankshaft journals have been machined down to a standard undersize. Using the correct undersize bearing ensures proper oil clearance, which is vital for engine longevity and performance, especially in performance applications.

ACL has a solid reputation for making well-built engine components. This set is designed for the demanding conditions of performance driving, ensuring your engine's rotating assembly stays properly lubricated and supported under load. If you're rebuilding your LT1, LT4, or L86 engine, these bearings are a solid option to consider for maintaining correct clearances.
