What does the +.5 sizing mean for these bearings?

The +.5 sizing indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard. This is typically used during engine rebuilds to achieve a specific bearing clearance, often to compensate for wear on the crankshaft journals or to set a desired oil clearance.

What is the Silvercore material?

Silvercore is King Engine Bearings' proprietary lead-free composite material. It's designed to provide exceptional strength and durability, allowing the bearings to withstand extreme loads without failing.

Are these bearings suitable for high-performance or modified engines?

Yes, the tri-metal construction and Silvercore material are engineered to handle extreme loads, making them a solid option for high-performance applications and modified engines where increased stress is common.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your BMW, especially models like the 550i, 750i, or M5, you'll want to pay close attention to the connecting rod bearings. These King Engine Bearings CR8049SV0.5 are a set of rod bearings specifically sized at +.5, meaning they are slightly larger than standard to account for wear or to achieve a specific clearance. King has been specializing in bearings since 1960, focusing on supplying well-built components for engine builds.

This particular set uses a tri-metal copper-based material with a lead-free composite layer called Silvercore. This construction is built to handle extreme loads, which is crucial for the high-performance engines found in many BMW applications. The +.5 sizing is important to note; it's not a standard size and is intended for specific engine rebuilding scenarios where that particular clearance is needed. Always confirm your engine's requirements before ordering.
