Product Details

Clevite is a well-known name for engine bearings, and this main bearing set is built to support the crankshaft in your Chrysler, Dodge, or Plymouth vehicle. This set is designed for the 360 cubic inch V8 engine found in models from 1971 through 1973, including the Chrysler Newport, Dodge Challenger, and Plymouth Barracuda.

These main bearings are a critical component for your engine's health.

This set is a direct replacement, meaning it's made to fit right into the factory location.

When rebuilding or repairing your engine, using a well-built main bearing set like this one from Clevite ensures that your crankshaft has the solid support it needs to operate reliably. Make sure to check your service manual for the correct installation procedure and torque specifications.
