King Engine Bearings Austin A-Series BiMetal Rod Bearings

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Austin A-Series, getting the connecting rod bearings right is crucial for long-term reliability. These are bimetal rod bearings, meaning they have an aluminum base, which is a common and well-built design for many performance and street applications. They are designed to handle the loads and stresses within the engine, helping to ensure smooth operation and proper oil clearance between the crankshaft and connecting rod.

King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in the performance and racing world, and these bearings are made to their standards. The bimetal construction offers good wear resistance and thermal conductivity, which are important factors for keeping your engine running cool and preventing premature wear. When installing, always ensure you have the correct oil clearances as specified by the manufacturer's service manual, as this is key to the longevity of any engine bearing.
