ACL Bearings 8B7281H-STD Race Series Rod Bearing Set - Chevrolet Gen V LT1/LT4/L86 6.2L V8 Standard Size

The ACL Bearings 8B7281H-STD Race Series Rod Bearing Set is engineered for Chevrolet Gen V 6.2L V8 engines including LT1, LT4, and L86 applications. This standard size bearing set represents ACL's commitment to precision manufacturing and motorsports-proven performance, delivering the reliability demanded by high-performance and racing builds.

Race-Proven Tri-Metal Construction:

These rod bearings feature multi-layered tri-metal copper alloy construction that combines high strength with excellent seizure resistance. The advanced metallurgy ensures durability under extreme conditions while maintaining consistent oil clearances for optimal engine protection.

Performance Features:

• Hardened steel backing on all rod bearings improves bearing lining support and retention in the housing
• High-strength overlay plate with reduced thickness for improved fatigue properties
• Increased crush for enhanced bearing retention through higher radial contact pressure
• Elimination of flash plating on bearing backs to maximize heat transfer and grip
• Increased eccentricity compensates for bore distortion at high RPM and assists hydrodynamic oil film formation
• Manufactured to exacting micron-level tolerances for reliable fit and consistent clearances

Application:

Specifically designed for Chevrolet Gen V 6.2L V8 engines (LT1, LT4, L86). This is a complete rod bearing set in standard size (STD). ACL Race Series bearings are trusted by professional engine builders and have proven themselves in competition from drift racing to NASCAR, IHRA, and NHRA events.
