Are these bearings suitable for a stock engine rebuild or only for racing?

What else might I need when installing these connecting rod bearings?

When installing connecting rod bearings, it's critical to use new rod bolts and follow the manufacturer's specified torque and stretch procedures. Cleanliness is also paramount; ensure all parts are free of debris before assembly.
