King Engine Bearings CR8005XP010 Connecting Rod Bearing Set for Ford 377

The King Engine Bearings CR8005XP010 is a high-performance connecting rod bearing set designed specifically for Ford 377 cubic inch engines. Part of King's XP Series, these bearings feature pMax Black tri-metal construction that delivers 24% greater hardness than conventional tri-metal race bearings, making them ideal for high-load racing applications using forged steel aftermarket crankshafts.

Key Features:

• pMax Black Tri-Metal Construction: Enhanced copper-lead alloy with nickel barrier and SecureBond adhesion technology provides 15-30% greater load capacity than traditional bearings
• Hardened Performance Overlay: 0.0005-inch metallurgically enhanced overlay withstands extreme loads and resists surface fatigue
• Bulls Eye Tolerance: Industry-leading wall thickness tolerances with all shells matched to 0.0001 inch for precise fitment
• Increased Bearing Height: Improved bearing-to-bore contact enhances heat transfer and reduces spin potential at high RPM
• Medium Eccentricity Design: Optimizes load distribution and improves oil flow characteristics
• Narrowed Profile: Designed to accommodate large-radius crankshafts common in performance applications

Ideal Applications:

• Circle track racing
• Off-road racing
• Marine offshore racing
• Any high-load, long-duration racing requiring steel crankshafts

The SecureBond adhesion process ensures superior stability between bearing layers, while the half-grooved main bearing design maintains uncompromised lower shell load capacity. These bearings are engineered to withstand the extreme loads and sustained high RPM conditions found in professional racing environments.

Note: This is a 0.010-inch oversize bearing set. Verify crankshaft journal dimensions before installation.
