Hi,
So would a .010X rod bearing for extra oil clearance be .009 right? So why did I get an .011 ?
Sounds like a simple question but I will explain after I get an answer. But im trying to figure out why a new set of bearings have 15 marked 10X and one 011? Did I get a jacked bearing in the mix or one from a diff batch? It seems I got jacked.
Thanks.

I measure every rod and main journal first and then measure the rods and main bearing in the block and rods torque down to see how much oil clearance I actually have Usually it is not enough with regular under size bearings but I like really loose oil clearances like .0040+ on the mains and at least .0030+ on the rods Take nothing for granite check all of them Let us know what you find on that one marked .0110

If these were two matched sets there would be .002 diff between the two, .009 to .011 and the shell marked .011 is .001 thicker then the shell marked .010X
So I got one shell for a .011 set and 15 shells for the .009 set.
Wonderful.

It doesn't matter what the crank size is, you size the rod to spec. The bearing is made to work in that size hole. Then you buy under/oversize bearings to get the clearance where you want it.
