What is included in this Clevite connecting rod bearing set?

This set includes all the necessary connecting rod bearings for a complete engine rebuild on compatible Buick V8 engines. You get the bearings needed to properly install the connecting rods onto the crankshaft.

What is the main purpose of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings create a low-friction surface between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. They are critical for maintaining proper oil clearance, which ensures the crankshaft is properly lubricated and reduces wear.

Are these bearings a direct fit for my 1965 Buick Skylark with a 401 V8?

Yes, this Clevite CB760A40(8) bearing set is designed to fit Buick 401 V8 engines from 1957 through 1976, which includes the 1965 Skylark. Always double-check the specific engine displacement and year range for your vehicle.
