Frequently Asked Questions:

1. Why do I need undersized rod bearings? Essentially, you need undersized bearings when a machinist has reduced the crankshaft’s connecting rod journals to a smaller diameter. This process removes damage or achieves a specific surface finish during an engine rebuild. Consequently, the bearing’s undersize compensates for the material removed from the crankshaft.
2. How do I know what undersize rod bearings I need? The correct undersize is determined by the amount of material removed during the crankshaft grinding process. Your machinist will measure the reground journals and specify the required undersize for the bearings.
3. How many rod bearings are in a set for a 289/302 Windsor? A complete set for a V8 engine typically includes 16 rod bearings (two halves per connecting rod).
4. Do I need any special tools to install these rod bearings? Yes, installing rod bearings requires specific tools. For instance, you will need a torque wrench to ensure proper bolt tightening and plastigauge to check bearing clearance. Therefore, always refer to your vehicle’s service manual for detailed instructions. Professional installation is highly recommended if you are not experienced in engine rebuilding.
