What does the +.026mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +.026mm sizing indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard. This is typically used when the crankshaft journals have been machined or have minor wear, requiring a slightly thicker bearing to achieve the correct clearance.

What is PMaxBlack technology?

PMaxBlack is a technology developed by King Engine Bearings that enhances the load-carrying capabilities of their bearings. It's designed to help the bearings withstand higher pressures and stresses within the engine.

Are these bearings suitable for a performance engine build?

Yes, the tri-metal copper-based material and PMaxBlack technology make these bearings a solid option for performance applications where increased load capacity is beneficial.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1988-1993 Toyota Celica, especially the 3Sgte 2.0L, getting the connecting rod bearings right is crucial for long-term reliability. These bearings from King Engine Bearings are a well-built option designed to handle the demands of your engine.

King specializes in bearings, and this set uses their PMaxBlack technology, which helps them handle higher loads. They're made from a tri-metal copper-based material, a common choice for performance and durability in engine bearings. The Radialock feature helps ensure the optimal crush height, which is important for proper seating and oil flow within the engine. This set is specifically sized at +.026mm, meaning they are slightly larger than standard to account for machining tolerances or wear during an engine rebuild.
