What does the +0.25mm sizing mean for these bearings?

The +0.25mm sizing indicates that these bearings are slightly larger than standard size. This is typically used when the engine's crankshaft journals have been machined down by 0.25mm during an engine rebuild to ensure proper oil clearance.

What is the pmax black racing line construction?

The pmax black racing line refers to King Engine Bearings' tri-metal bearing material. This construction is designed for higher load capacities and improved performance in demanding engine applications.

Are these bearings suitable for a stock engine rebuild?

These bearings are part of King's racing line and are sized +0.25mm. They are best suited for performance-oriented rebuilds or engines where the crankshaft has been machined to accept this larger size. Always consult your engine's service manual or a qualified mechanic for specific rebuild requirements.
