What does the '+0.50mm' size designation mean for these bearings?

The '+0.50mm' or '.020 inch' designation means these bearings are designed for crankshaft journals that have been machined undersize by 0.50 millimeters. This is common during engine rebuilds when the crankshaft needs to be ground to remove imperfections.

What is the advantage of the bi-metal aluminum material?

The bi-metal aluminum construction offers good load-carrying capacity and wear resistance. It's a popular choice for many engine applications, especially for medium-load engines, and this particular composite is lead-free.

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

These bearings are noted as being ideal for medium-load engines. For high-performance or racing applications, it's always best to consult King Engine Bearings' specific product lines designed for those demanding uses.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of your Chevrolet or GMC 262 engine, getting the right connecting rod bearings is crucial for proper oil clearance and engine health. These bearings from King Engine Bearings are specifically made for engines that have been machined to a +0.50mm (or .020 inch) undersize on the crank journal. They are designed to provide the correct oil film thickness, which is essential for reducing friction and wear between the connecting rod and the crankshaft.

King specializes in engine bearings, and these are constructed with a bi-metal aluminum material. This composite is lead-free and environmentally safe, making it a solid choice for medium-load engines. The precise sizing ensures they fit right into your rebuilt engine, helping to restore proper oil pressure and lubrication to your connecting rods.
