What does 'standard size' mean for these rod bearings?

Standard size bearings are designed to be used with a crankshaft that is still within its original factory specifications, meaning it hasn't been machined undersize. They provide the intended oil clearance from the factory.

What is the advantage of tri-metal overlay construction?

Tri-metal construction uses multiple layers of different materials, typically a steel backing, a bronze-aluminum alloy intermediate layer, and a soft overlay like babbitt. This design offers a strong foundation with a conformable surface that can better handle load and minor imperfections.

Do I need to replace my crankshaft when installing these bearings?

These are standard size bearings, so they are intended for use with a crankshaft that is in good condition and has not been machined undersize. If your crankshaft journals are worn or damaged, they may need to be machined to an undersize specification, requiring different bearings.

Product Details

Already running a built engine or looking to get more out of your CA18 or CA20? This ACL High Performance Rod Bearing Set is the next piece of the puzzle. These bearings are designed to handle increased stress and heat that comes with a performance engine build, offering a solid upgrade over stock components. They are standard size, meaning they're meant to be used with a factory-spec crankshaft, and provide improved oil clearance to ensure proper lubrication under demanding conditions.

ACL has been making engine bearings for a long time, and these are well-built for the job. They use a tri-metal overlay construction, which is a popular choice for performance applications because it offers a good balance of strength and conformability. This means the bearing can adapt to minor imperfections in the crankshaft journal while still providing a strong load-bearing surface. When you're pushing your engine hard, having reliable rod bearings is crucial for preventing catastrophic failure.

This set includes all the necessary rod bearings for your engine. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions carefully, as proper torque and lubrication are key to their performance and longevity.
