What does the 0.5mm undersize mean for my engine?

The 0.5mm undersize indicates that these bearings are designed to fit crankshaft journals that have been machined down by 0.020 inches. This is a common practice when reconditioning a crankshaft to ensure a smooth surface for new bearings.

What is the 'Obtainium' overlay material?

King Engine Bearings uses a tri-metal design with their 'Obtainium' overlay. This material is chosen for its strength and wear resistance, helping to manage friction and heat within the engine.

Do these bearings come with installation instructions?

While this set includes the bearings, it's recommended to refer to the manufacturer's official installation instructions or consult a qualified mechanic for proper installation procedures and torque specifications.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of your GM LS LV3 4.3L V6, a set of connecting rod bearings is essential. This set from King Engine Bearings is specifically made for that engine, and it's sized 0.5mm undersize, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been machined down during a rebuild. King is known for making well-built engine bearings that hold up well under stress.

These bearings use King's 'Obtainium' overlay material, which is a tri-metal design that offers good strength and wear resistance. The material helps to reduce friction and heat buildup, which is critical for the longevity of your engine, especially if you plan on putting it to work. The 0.5mm undersize means they're designed to fit crankshaft journals that have been ground down by 0.020 inches, a common practice when reconditioning a crankshaft to ensure a smooth surface for new bearings.
