Questions before i order a couple things.
So i am building a d16y8.I am about to order main bearings and need to know if i just get a stock size bearing or if there is a difference size necessary. i plan on going turbo with a vitara piston and fjt custom length rod if that matters? thanks in advance

Re: Questions before i order a couple things.
depends on what color stock bearings you have and if they are al or at least most the same color or not. this wil decide if you can run aftermarket or if stock would be a better choice and if aftermarket will tl you if you can run standar undersized or oversized. the length of the rod has nothing to do with the bearings its the size of the big end of the rod opening that ges around the crank

also different companies for rods have different size bearings. So I believe the company you buy the rods from can tell you what color their rods take (like eagles are the same, at least for my B series)

Depends on your clearenced the race bearings tend to give more bearing clearence vs their duraglides but both are great bearings

Re: Questions before i order a couple things.
ok thanks for the input.So it wouldnt be safe to just order a standard size bearing? The machine shop will measure the clearances and i go from there?
