King Engine Bearings Mini Cooper B38A15M0 (Size +0.50mm) Connecting Rod Bearing Set

These King Engine Bearings connecting rod bearings are built with a silver-based overlay, a material choice that helps them handle the high loads found in performance engines. They are specifically sized at +0.50mm, meaning they are intended for use when the crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.50mm during an engine rebuild. This set is made for the Mini Cooper B38A15M0 engine, a common application for those rebuilding or repairing their engine's bottom end.

King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in engine components, and this set reflects their focus on durable parts for demanding applications. The silver-based overlay offers improved load-carrying capacity compared to standard bearings, which is crucial for the connecting rod journals that experience significant forces with every combustion cycle. Using the correct bearing size is critical for proper oil clearance, which ensures adequate lubrication and prevents premature wear.
