This Clevite P-Series connecting rod bearing fits the small block Chevy V8. It is a 0.030 in undersize bearing, sold individually. Clevite P-Series bearings are intended for rebuilds where more demanding use is expected, such as heavy duty, motorsports or street performance. As the most versatile Clevite replacement bearing, the P-Series suits most OE applications, and its tri-metal design has more load capacity than bi-metal bearings, making it a suitable upgrade from bi-metal.
