What does the .001 size designation mean for these bearings?

The .001 size indicates that these bearings are one thousandth of an inch smaller than standard size. This is used when the crankshaft has been machined down by that amount to correct wear or out-of-round conditions, ensuring proper oil clearance.

What is the advantage of pMax Black tri-metal bearings?

King's pMax Black bearings utilize a tri-metal construction that offers enhanced load-carrying capacity and improved oil control compared to standard bearings. This makes them a solid option for engines that will be used in more demanding scenarios.

Do these bearings come with the necessary hardware for installation?

This product is for the crankshaft main bearing set only. Installation typically requires careful cleaning of the block and crankshaft, and it's recommended to refer to the manufacturer's specific installation instructions for proper torque and oiling procedures.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of a Ford 370, 429, or 460 engine, getting the crankshaft main bearings right is crucial for longevity and performance. These King Engine Bearings are a popular choice for those looking for a step up from standard bearings, especially in applications where the engine will see more demanding use. They are designed to handle the stresses of performance builds and offer improved durability over stock components.

These are the pMax Black race bearings, featuring a tri-metal construction. This advanced material composition offers better load-carrying capacity and improved oil clearance control, which is vital for keeping your crankshaft running smoothly under pressure. The .001 inch undersize means these bearings are intended for crankshafts that have been machined down by one thousandth of an inch to correct wear or out-of-round conditions. This specific sizing ensures a proper fit and optimal oil clearance when used with a matched crankshaft.

This set fits a wide range of Ford vehicles from the mid-60s through the late 90s, including popular models like the F-150, E-Series vans, and LTD. Always ensure your crankshaft has been measured and machined to the correct size before ordering bearings.
