I have never heard of any one having a good experience with king bearings. I would stick with clevite, acl or oem.

my lag is your courtesy head start


ATTENTION.... installing a head gasket, head studs or pistons and rods in your otherwise STOCK engine dose not make it a "built" engine! stop listing you cars for sale saying they are built when its not!!

+1. Currently running Clevites and the clearances, material and fit were good. I ordered ACL Race for my build but they were on back order and replaced with Clevite.

Stay away from King.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
