What does the '1.0' size designation mean for these bearings?

The '1.0' designation indicates that these bearings are 0.010 inches undersize compared to standard size. This is important if your engine's crankshaft journals have been machined undersize during a rebuild.

What is the advantage of using a tri-metal material for engine bearings?

Tri-metal bearings are known for their excellent strength and ability to withstand high loads and temperatures. This construction helps provide reliable lubrication and wear resistance in demanding engine applications.

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

Yes, King Engine Bearings are a popular choice for engine builders, including those working on performance or modified engines, due to their well-built construction and ability to handle increased stress.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of your GM 6.2L LT1 or LT4 Gen V engine, getting the connecting rod bearings right is critical. These King Engine Bearings are made to fit that specific application, ensuring your crankshaft and connecting rods have the proper clearance for oil flow and smooth operation. Getting this clearance dialed in is key to preventing premature wear and ensuring the longevity of your engine rebuild.

King uses a special tri-metal material for these bearings, which is known for its strength and ability to handle the loads found in performance engines. They're also a 1.0 size, meaning they are 0.010 inches undersize, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been ground down during a rebuild or repair. This precise sizing helps maintain the correct oil film thickness between the bearing and the crank, which is vital for lubrication and heat dissipation.

When you're putting an engine back together, especially one with the power potential of an LT1 or LT4, using well-built bearings like these from King is a smart move. They're a popular choice for builders who want reliable performance and durability for their engine projects.
