ACL **Coated** Ford Prod. V8 370-429-460 Race Series Engine Crankshaft Main Bearing Set

When you're rebuilding a Ford 370, 429, or 460 V8, especially for performance applications, the main bearings are critical. This Race Series set from ACL uses a special coating designed to reduce friction and improve oil retention, which is key for keeping those big-block cranks spinning smoothly under load. These bearings are built to handle more stress than standard OE parts, making them a solid choice for a performance build or a heavy-duty rebuild.

ACL has been making engine bearings for a long time, and this Race Series set is a step up from their standard offerings. The coating on these bearings helps to cushion them against the crankshaft, providing an extra layer of protection and allowing for a slightly more forgiving oil clearance if needed. This set is specifically sized at 0.010 inches undersize, which is important to note if you're re-using your original crankshaft. If your crank has been machined, you'll need to match the bearing size to the journal size.

This set includes main bearings for the specified Ford V8 engines. It's important to verify fitment for your specific vehicle, as these engines were used across a wide range of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury models from the late 60s through the mid-70s. Always refer to your vehicle's service manual for the correct installation procedures and torque specifications.
