What is the difference between Race Series and standard ACL bearings?

ACL Race Series bearings feature a thicker overlay material and a special groove design for improved oil flow. They are built to handle higher shock loads and oil clearances common in performance and racing applications compared to standard bearings.

What does 'Standard Size' mean for these bearings?

Standard size means these bearings are designed to fit a crankshaft that has not been machined or worn beyond its original factory specifications. If your crankshaft journals have been ground undersize, you will need to select an undersize bearing set.

What is the typical application for these bearings?

These bearings are typically used in performance engine builds, including racing applications and high-output street engines. They are designed to provide reliable lubrication and durability under demanding operating conditions for Ford 351 Cleveland V8 engines.

Product Details

ACL has been making engine bearings for decades, and this Race Series Crankshaft Main Bearing Set for your Ford 351 Cleveland V8 is one of their staples. These bearings are built for performance applications where oil clearance is critical for engine longevity under stress. They feature a tri-metal construction with a high-performance overlay that's designed to handle the demands of racing and high-output street engines.

The Race Series bearings use a thicker overlay material compared to standard bearings, which helps to absorb more shock and reduce wear. They also incorporate a special groove design that improves oil flow to the main journals, ensuring proper lubrication even at high RPMs. This set is the standard size, meaning it's intended for crankshafts that are still within factory specifications. If your crankshaft has been machined, you'll need to select the appropriate undersize bearing set.

When rebuilding or modifying a Ford 351 Cleveland, especially for performance use, a quality main bearing set like this ACL Race Series is a solid choice. Make sure to check your crankshaft's condition and journal sizes before ordering to ensure you get the correct fitment for your build.
