What is the main function of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. Their primary job is to create a thin, pressurized oil film that allows the crankshaft to rotate smoothly while reducing friction and wear between these critical metal parts.

Are these bearings a direct replacement for my engine?

Yes, these Clevite CB1443A(6) bearings are designed as a direct replacement for the specified Buick V6 204-231-231 Supercharged engines. They are sized to fit standard crankshaft journals for a proper installation.

What condition should the crankshaft journals be in before installing these bearings?

For optimal performance and longevity, the crankshaft journals must be clean, smooth, and within the manufacturer's specified tolerances for diameter and finish. Any nicks, scoring, or out-of-round conditions on the journals can lead to premature bearing failure.
