What does the +0.50mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.50mm sizing indicates that these bearings are intended for a crankshaft that has been machined down by 0.50mm. This is a common practice during engine rebuilds when the original crankshaft journals have wear or damage and need to be reconditioned to a standard undersize.

What is the construction of these main bearings?

These main bearings are made with a bimetal construction, featuring an aluminum base. This design helps with heat dissipation and provides a durable surface for the crankshaft to rotate against.

Do these bearings come with installation instructions?

While these bearings are designed as a direct fit, it is always recommended to refer to the manufacturer's official installation guidelines or a qualified mechanic for proper installation procedures and torque specifications.
