What does the +0.50mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.50mm sizing indicates that these bearings are intended for crankshaft journals that have been machined down by 0.50mm. This is a common practice during engine rebuilds to correct wear or damage on the crankshaft journals.

What is the CP material used in these bearings?

The CP material is a high-performance overlay developed by King Engine Bearings. It's designed to offer enhanced durability and a greater capacity to handle loads, which is beneficial for the demanding environment inside an engine.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

About this part

Product Details

This is a set of connecting rod bearings from King Engine Bearings, specifically designed for General Motors 379/395 16-valve engines. These bearings are sized at +0.50mm, meaning they are intended for crankshaft journals that have been machined down by 0.50mm during an engine rebuild. Proper bearing clearance is crucial for oil flow and preventing friction, and this set helps ensure you get that correct clearance when rebuilding or repairing your engine.

King Engine Bearings are known for their well-built construction. This set uses a CP material, which is a high-performance overlay material that offers improved durability and load-carrying capacity compared to standard bearings. The precision manufacturing ensures that each bearing fits right and performs as expected, helping to protect your engine's rotating assembly under demanding conditions. When you're working on the bottom end of your engine, getting the right bearings is a critical step for longevity and performance.
