What information do I need to match these pistons to my engine?
You need the engine code, bore size, stroke, rod length, pin diameter and target compression ratio. These determine the correct piston compression height and crown design.
How should ring gaps be set for these pistons?
Ring gaps must be set by your engine builder based on fuel type, boost level and the intended rpm range. Forced-induction engines usually require larger gaps.
Are forged pistons suitable for street engines?
Yes. Forged pistons handle detonation and high cylinder pressure better than cast units. Your builder should set the piston-to-bore clearance to suit your application.
What are the key features of the ACL Race Series Conrod Bearings for the FORD 377 Cleveland with Chev rods?
The ACL Race Series Conrod Bearings feature a high strength overlay plate with reduced thickness for enhanced durability, hardened steel backs for increased strength, and improved crush to eliminate flash plating for better fitment.

Do I need to modify the engine block or conrods to fit these bearings?
Typically, the ACL Race Series Conrod Bearings are designed to fit the FORD 377 Cleveland with Chev rods without modification. However, it is essential to check the specific dimensions and clearances of your engine components, as variations can occur. Proper machining and fitment practices should always be followed.
What type of oil should I use with these conrod bearings?
For optimal performance with ACL Race Series Conrod Bearings, use high-quality engine oil that meets the requirements of your engine's operating conditions. Synthetic oils are often recommended for high RPM and racing applications, but ensure that the oil viscosity is appropriate for your specific setup.
What is the recommended clearance for these bearings in a high-performance application?
The recommended bearing clearance for ACL Race Series Conrod Bearings in a high-performance application typically falls within the range of 0.0015 to 0.0030 inches, but this can vary based on your specific engine build and intended use. Always consult with your engine builder to determine the best clearance for your setup.
Are these bearings suitable for both street and race applications?
While the ACL Race Series Conrod Bearings are engineered for high-performance and racing conditions, they can also be used in street applications if the engine is built for performance. However, ensure that your engine's operating conditions and maintenance practices align with the demands of these bearings to ensure reliability.
