Fitting sports connecting rod bearings

Sports bushings are harder than the standard ones and are fitted on cars with forged and tempered shafts. Without an additional layer of metal alloys on their outer side, the bushings release heat more effectively. Installation of sports bushings is only one of a number of elements that you have to take into consideration when modifying your engine.

Tips

  • Installation of sports bushings alone without modifying other components of the engine will not improve its performance
  • All engine modifications are very complicated and should be carried out only by professional garages
