Description
The King Engine Bearings Coated & Graded Connecting Rod Bearing Set (CR8066GPC) is purpose-built for the BMW S65B40 V8 engine found in the E9X BMW M3. Designed to handle the extreme RPM capability and load demands of this high-revving performance engine, this bearing set delivers the durability, precision, and consistency required for both spirited street driving and track-focused builds.
Produced using King Engine Bearings’ advanced tri-metal construction, these connecting rod bearings provide excellent fatigue strength and resistance to wear under high-stress operating conditions. The performance-grade coating reduces friction, improves surface protection, and enhances bearing survival during cold starts and aggressive driving cycles.
Each bearing is graded to allow for accurate oil clearance selection during engine assembly, making this set ideal for preventative maintenance, engine refreshes, or full performance rebuilds. Engineered to King Engine Bearings’ strict tolerances, this set ensures reliable lubrication control and long-term engine protection in demanding environments.
