What does the 0.25mm oversized sizing mean for my engine rebuild?

The 0.25mm oversized sizing indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard. This is typically used when the crankshaft journals have been machined down (ground undersize) during an engine rebuild to remove wear or damage. These bearings will then provide the correct clearance for those machined journals.

What is the p-max black coating on these bearings?

The p-max black coating is a specialized racing line developed by King Engine Bearings. It's designed to offer enhanced durability and reduced friction, particularly in high-stress racing or performance engine applications, helping to protect the bearing surface.

Do these bearings come with installation hardware?

This product is for the connecting rod bearing set only. Installation hardware, such as new rod bolts, is not included and should be sourced separately if needed for your rebuild.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1988-1993 Toyota Celica with the 3SGTE engine, these King Engine Bearings connecting rod bearings are a solid option. They are specifically made to fit the 16-valve, 2.0L 3SGTE engine and come 0.25mm oversized, which is important if your crankshaft journals have been machined down during a rebuild.

These bearings feature King's p-max black coating, which is a racing line designed for enhanced durability and reduced friction, especially under high-load conditions. This coating helps protect the bearing surface and ensures consistent oil clearance, which is crucial for engine longevity and performance. King is known for making well-built bearings, and this set is designed to handle the demands of a performance engine build.

When installing these bearings, always ensure your crankshaft journals are clean and within the specified machining tolerances for the 0.25mm oversized size. Proper installation is key to getting the most out of these performance components.
