What does the .026 size mean for my engine?

The .026 size indicates that these bearings are undersized by 0.026 inches. This is useful if your engine's crankshaft has been previously machined or ground down to correct imperfections or to achieve a specific clearance. Always confirm the required bearing size with your engine's specifications or machine shop.

What is pMaxKote and Radialock technology?

pMaxKote is King's tri-metal copper-based material, engineered for superior load capacity, making these bearings ideal for high-performance applications. Radialock is a feature that helps achieve optimal crush height, ensuring the bearings seat correctly in the engine block for consistent performance.

Are these bearings suitable for a stock VR38DETT engine?

While these bearings are designed for superior load capacity and are a popular choice for performance builds, they can also be used in a stock VR38DETT engine. Their robust construction offers added durability and protection, especially if the engine is subjected to harder use than typical daily driving.
