What does 'extra oil clearance' mean for my engine?

Extra oil clearance means there's a slightly larger gap between the rod bearing and the crankshaft journal. This allows for more oil to flow through, which helps keep the bearings cooler and ensures better lubrication, especially when the engine is working harder or at higher RPMs.

Do these bearings come with new bolts?

This set includes the rod bearings only. You will need to reuse your original connecting rod bolts or purchase new ones separately, as they are not included with the bearings.

Can I use these if my crankshaft has been re-ground?

These are standard size bearings. If your crankshaft has been re-ground (machined undersize), you would need to purchase bearings that are sized to match the new journal diameter (e.g., .010" undersize, .020" undersize).

Product Details

Doing a rebuild on your D16A6 engine for your 1988-2000 Honda Civic, or maybe a performance build? These ACL high-performance rod bearings are a solid choice. They're designed with extra oil clearance, which is crucial when you're pushing an engine harder than stock. This extra space allows for a bit more oil flow, helping to keep those connecting rods properly lubricated and cooler under stress.

ACL has been around for a while, and they make well-built engine components. These bearings are standard size, meaning they're meant to be used with a crankshaft that's still within factory specifications. The extra oil clearance is a smart move if you've already got some modifications done, like a hotter camshaft or a different intake, and you're expecting higher RPMs or more load on the engine. It's a way to add a little extra insurance against oil starvation in those critical areas.

When you're putting these in, make sure your crankshaft journals are clean and within spec. If you're unsure, it's always a good idea to have them measured. These bearings are a direct fit for the D16A6 engine, and they'll also work on other compatible engines like those found in the Acura Integra, Honda CRX, and Civic del Sol from the specified years.
