Sounds like great info and timing for a 'bearing info' type thread! (@spaz [MENTION=40]monjarassi[/MENTION] [MENTION=56]PetefromtheStreets[/MENTION] [MENTION=867]ryaano18[/MENTION])

I'll let someone else start the thread n chime in as we go.
Ok so the acl bearings for the a2, will work in my z3 block with my z3 crank just fine? I ask because the tech at acl told my shop differently when he was trying to order bearings.Quote:

So you're not sure if the acl bearings will work? What bearings are you using?Quote:

Don't wanna go there myself.
They are all interchangeable, the only difference being their thickness between ACL and OEM. ACL standard size is similar to a Honda green bearing IIRC... As long as you are in the correct tolerances for each bearing you should be good to go. Just make sure to check your clearances with plastiguage or micrometer.Quote:

That is my understanding. I don't think I'll ever get all the measurements, but they will be taking all necessary measurements as they assemble. It should be rather straight forward, as only one rod spun a bearing and it was very minor. The rest should all be right within spec.Quote:
