Engine bearings are crucial for the engine to perform effectively. During the upgrade process, this vital component is rarely the first choice. Generating less heat, a higher performing, multi-layer engine bearing will simply perform better. Cosworth's uniquely designed, Rod Bearing Set combines design, metallurgy, and engineering to provide continuous performance under the most extreme conditions.

All connecting rod bearings come with a hardened steel backing with an increased crush for better retention and tight, consistent wall tolerances for a precision fit. With each set, the reduced thickness of the high strength overlay plate allows for better oil control creating less friction allowing for more heat transfer eliminating flash plating.

Mixing and matching the bearing half-shells will provide incremental changes in the amount of oil clearance. Measuring the bearing clearances is crucial prior to selecting the appropriate bearing size to ensure optimal performance.
