Product Description

The King MB7039AM AM-Series main bearing kit delivers OEM-level durability and reliability for BMW I6 engines spanning decades, from the classic E30 3-Series to the high-output E46 M3. Constructed with precise aluminum-based tri-metal layers - steel backing and SAE-783 equivalent alloy - these bearings are designed to withstand daily driving and moderate performance demands without requiring machining or modification.

Featuring a full 180° oil groove and standard STD sizing, this kit ensures consistent oil flow and drop-in fitment. Ideal for rebuilds or refreshes of M20, M50, M52, S50, and S52 engines, including the S54 in the E46 M3. Backed by King's lifetime replacement at participating dealers, these bearings deliver quality you can rely on. Installation by a professional machinist and verification of oil clearance is recommended.
