What is the primary function of main bearings in an engine?

Main bearings support the crankshaft within the engine block. They create a low-friction surface for the crankshaft to rotate on, while also maintaining the precise oil clearance needed for proper lubrication and engine operation.

Does this Clevite main bearing set include everything needed for installation?

This set includes the main bearings themselves. You will need to ensure you have the correct engine oil, a torque wrench, and other necessary tools and sealants as specified by the manufacturer's service manual for proper installation.

Are these bearings suitable for a performance or modified 5.7L Hemi engine?

Clevite bearings are known for their durability and are often used in performance applications. However, for modified engines, it's always recommended to verify that the specific bearing specifications meet the requirements of your build, especially regarding oil clearances.
