Car needs to be done

[defeat54]

I got all my parts back from the shop, block ported and head ported and polished. Brand new all forged internals, Eagle Rods, Wiseco Pistons and polished crankshaft 1010. I forgot the acl bearings =/. Can I use stock ones? I can't wait a week for bearings to show up.


95 420a turbo.

Are you talking about reusing the stock bearings?. I would be patient, if you rush an engine build things can and will go wrong.

Agreed.

I'd just wait, it's not worth paying for parts or machining twice.

Stock bearings are just fine, but reusing stock ones is a big no-no. New ones are fine.

Stock bearings should be fine. Just don't re-use the old ones. Get new ones from advance or where ever. Sealed power bearings are pretty good.

 

[defeat54]

If I get the stock ones they would be brand new. Will they be fine up to 340whp?

The bearings will hold whatever horsepower you throw at them.

Do not skip on bearings. The fact that you are even asking this makes me question the integrity of your build.

My build couldn't get much better. I didn't skip out on anything, but I forgot to buy Acl bearings and the car has to be done this week. I have no idea what the stock bearings can handle and thought I could ask if anyone has personal exp using stock bearings on a built motor.

IF you are in a hurry than order them from the dealership or any local parts store. You should be able to have them the next day. Pretty much any bearing, oem, acl, clevite, sealed power, king, all of them will work fine as long as you get the right size.

If you need the car done, have the bearings shipped overnight...
