Race Conn. Bearings Set – Alfa Romeo 1300 Nord

Description

These high-performance connecting rod bearings are engineered for use in competition-grade Alfa Romeo Twin Spark 8-valve engines, where thermal stability, oil control, and load-bearing capacity are critical.

Manufactured using tri-metal construction (steel back, copper-lead intermediate layer, and lead-free overlay), these bearings are designed to handle extreme crankshaft loads, elevated oil temperatures, and high RPM environments typical of racing applications.

Technical Features:

• Tri-metal composition: Hardened steel backing with copper-lead intermediate and precision overlay
• Increased fatigue resistance: Up to 10,000 psi load capacity
• Tight tolerance machining: Consistent oil clearance and bearing crush for improved lubrication stability
• Coated options available: Polymer-based dry film coatings for reduced startup wear and boundary lubrication support
• Oil groove design: Optional race-spec configurations for enhanced oil flow and bearing stability at high RPM
• Compatibility: Direct fit for OEM Alfa Romeo 8V Twin Spark connecting rods or aftermarket H-beam rods using OE spec journals
