ACL Race main bearings for Ford Kent / Cosworth BDA

ACL Race Series main bearings are tri-metal engine bearings designed for higher RPM conditions. Their construction combines a high-strength overlay plate with a steel back.

The design supports consistent retention in the housing and the formation of hydrodynamic oil films. The set includes ACL Race Series main bearings.

• High-strength overlay plate with reduced thickness for improved fatigue properties
• Increased crush for improved bearing retention in the housing
• Elimination of flash plating on the back for improved heat transfer and grip in the housing
• Increased eccentricity to compensate for bore distortion at high RPM
• 3/4-grooved main bearings to optimize bearing load-carrying surface area and oil flow
• Tight, consistent wall tolerances to help maintain consistent clearances

Suitable for: Ford Capri I (ECJ) / II (GECP), Ford Cortina I / V (E/MK5), Ford Escort MK (III/GAA) / MK (IV/GAF/ALF) / MK (V/ALL/AAL/ABL) / MK (V/TURNIER/ANL) / MK (VI/GAL/AAL/ABL) / MK (VI/TURNIER/GAL).

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.
