Jay's Tech Tips #41 - Bearing Size and Terminology - Real Street Performance

Excellent Information! Thanks

Finally another ep keep them coming

Absolutely love this channel/Company.

Just leave this up to the machine shop.

great vid. more.

WOW!!! Amazing info sharing video, thanks Jay!

JAY! Where have you been ? We miss you.

Jay, like the videos. Your bearing size video doesn't take into account some exceptions for the terminology of sizing. I know from experience(not much) that air cooled vw's can use an over and under sized main bearing when align-boring the case. The outside of the bearing shell is referred to as being oversized and the inside, if the main journal is turned, is referred to as being under sized.

Great informative video for those that do not assemble engines all the time!

big thanks!

Jay. Don't hold the micrometer by the anvil. Your body heat will give you an incorrect reading from where you set in with the standard. Always hold the standard and the anvil on the plastic insulation pads. Carry on.

Is it true if you machine a crank 0.010" over, the total crank overall machined was 0.020"? So you would need just need .010" thicker bearings right?

Why does EVERYONE from REAL ST videos Look so depressed I feel like someone is holding them hostage and their being forced to make this videos at him point .... Omg smile or something at least act like y'all like your job

Can one have the machine shop just grind down the journals for more clearnace if weanted?

I diged that video !!

What a good size clearing for a 2jzgte engine?(rods and main) With 1000 hp goal .

Nice

well said ....

My good man! a question: does the bearing clearance effect thrust, or rather the end play/lateral movement of the crank shaft?

Learn so much from this man

Can you build my engine?

What is the difference between undersized and oversized

What a bloody explanation. Once of the best by far.

Hey J, my 2008 town and country use to fit .25mm now when I purchased .25mm bearings it's too tight now. which would be the next size to use and where can I purchase them from? Thanks for your explanation.

Mention about loading the dial bore gage too much, meaning no revolutions of the dial, so gage dial spring pressure is kept to a minimum. This keeps you from scratching or marking up the brand new bearings!

thank you so much

Thanks- for me- this is invaluable !
👍

Could you use oversized bearings for a block that's been line honed and now has too much clearance?

sir i need in Qatar

Thanks
