When building an engine, one crucial component that is often overlooked is the bearings. It is essential to obtain a quality set of bearings to ensure the longevity of your engine. 

Here are some vehicle applications for which ACL Race Series Performance Engine Bearings are suitable:

- Audi TFSI 1984cc 4 cyl. (EA888) S3, TTS 

- VW TFSI 1984cc 4 cyl. (EA888) Golf R (Mk7)

The design, metallurgy, and engineering of these bearings combine to provide a high-performance trimetal engine bearing that can withstand higher RPM conditions. Some of the features of these bearings include:

- High strength overlay plate with reduced thickness for improved fatigue properties

- Hardened steel backs on all rod bearings to improve the support of the bearing lining and assist with bearing retention in the housing

- Increased crush for improved bearing retention

- Elimination of flash plating on the back of the bearings to improve heat transfer through the bearings and to maximize the grip between the bearings and their housing

- Increased eccentricity to compensate for bore distortion at high RPM and to assist in the formation of hydrodynamic oil films

- 3/4 grooved Main Bearings to optimize bearing load carrying surface area and oil flow to the conrod bearings

- Tight consistent wall tolerances to help maintain consistent clearances

- Enlarged ID chamfers on bearing edges where required to accommodate large fillet radius on performance crankshafts.

Investing in high-quality bearings like ACL Race Series Performance Engine Bearings can significantly impact the longevity and efficiency of your engine.
