What does the '.002in O/S Housing' mean for these bearings?

The '.002in O/S Housing' indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard size. This is done to compensate for minor wear on the crankshaft journals, ensuring a precise and correct clearance when installed.

Are these bearings suitable for a high-performance or modified engine?

Yes, King Engine Bearings are known for their robust construction and are a popular choice for engine builds, including those with turbochargers and other performance modifications. They are designed to handle increased stress.

What is the primary function of connecting rod bearings?

Connecting rod bearings sit between the connecting rod and the crankshaft. Their main job is to reduce friction and wear by allowing the rod to rotate smoothly around the crank journal, while also maintaining a critical oil film.
