ACL Race Series main bearings are tri-metal engine bearings designed for demanding conditions and higher RPM operation. The construction combines a high-strength overlay plate, consistent wall tolerances and improved bearing retention in the housing.
Increased eccentricity helps compensate for bore distortion at high RPM and assists in forming a hydrodynamic oil film. 3/4 grooved main bearings optimize bearing load-carrying surface area and oil flow to the conrod bearings.
- High-strength overlay plate with reduced thickness
- Increased crush for improved bearing retention
- Elimination of flash plating on the back for improved heat transfer and grip in the housing
- Increased eccentricity to compensate for bore distortion
- Tight, consistent wall tolerances
Suitable for: BMW 3 II (E30) / III (E36) / IV (E46), BMW Z3 I (E36).
Engines: M43, M40, M42, M44 (M40B16, M42B18, M43B16, M44B19, M43B19, M40B18, M43B18). Please check your vehicle’s engine code (registration document or VIN) before ordering; if in doubt, contact us and we will check for you.
Sizes
STD is the standard size for an unground crankshaft. Undersizes (−0.25 mm, −0.50 mm …) are for a reground crank, and “+0.025 mm clearance” (X) is for highly stressed engines. Your machine shop chooses the size after measuring.
