What does the '+0.75mm' size mean for these bearings?

The '+0.75mm' indicates that these bearings are designed for a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.75 millimeters during an engine rebuild. This ensures proper fit and oil clearance with the undersized crank journals.

What is the advantage of a bimetal aluminum base construction?

A bimetal construction with an aluminum base offers good wear resistance and conformability. This helps the bearing adapt to the crankshaft journal while handling the loads and heat generated during engine operation.

Are these bearings sold individually or as a set?

This is a main bearing set, meaning it includes all the necessary main bearings to replace the set in your engine. You'll receive the correct quantity for your General Motors LX3, 85ci, or 98ci engine.

About this part

Product Details

These main bearings are built with a bimetal construction, featuring an aluminum base. This design is crucial for the General Motors LX3, 85ci, and 98ci engines found in your 1976-1987 Chevrolet Chevette. When you're rebuilding your engine, the main bearings are what support the crankshaft, allowing it to spin smoothly within the engine block. They handle significant loads and friction, so having a well-made set is key to a healthy engine.

This particular set is sized at +0.75mm, meaning it's intended for crankshafts that have been machined down by that amount during an engine rebuild. Using the correct size bearing ensures proper oil clearance, which is vital for lubrication and preventing premature wear. King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in engine components, and these bearings are a solid option for getting your engine back in top shape.
