what bearings for my build?
Hello everyone,
I'd like o get some input/experiences regarding bearings for mains and rods for my engine build. I'm using a 40mm crank so less options available So far I considered TRD and ACL Race for the Mains (100$-130$) and TRD for the rods. My engine will rev up to 8-9k and 170-200hp @fly. Thanks for reading and looking forward to your experiences. PS: also opinions about the 'perfect' clearance/tolerance for the bearings would be interesting. Car is not an all out racer so still used on the street for a run down to the shops etc... AE86 ex-daily |

I'm looking for experience people had with any and how they lasted etc... As I don't plan to drop the sump every 6 months to check if everything is still in one piece. AE86 ex-daily |

I'm running clevite if that helps...........
Oh... btw... you DON'T want to spin that crank much above 8400.... the early cranks are lighter... by almost a kilo... but because SOME of the counter weights are different, the crank can have issues above the mid 8000s Dan - You can | .... OR you can ask for help!!! OST Porting service - http://hachiroku.net/forums/showthread.php?t=19991 |

How much were the Clevite and are they available in different sizes? ACL only has 2 sizes. TRD 2 seizes for rod-end and 6 for mains. And so on... AE86 ex-daily |
