Product Description

King's MB7089XP XP-series main bearing set delivers race-grade durability and clearance precision for VR6 engines across VW, Audi, and Porsche platforms. Featuring a tri-metal construction with steel backing, bronze intermediate, and a proprietary pMaxBlack™ overlay hardened to 10,200 PSI, these bearings resist fatigue and maintain stability under extreme loads - ideal for forged-steel cranks, high-rev racing, and off-road builds.

Optimized with U-Groove, Radialock™, Eccentrix™, and Bulls Eye™ technologies, each shell ensures precise oil flow, crush height, eccentricity, and wall tolerance. OEM-standard dimensions guarantee drop-in fitment without machining, while the 7-bearing set supports full crankshaft installation. This kit is perfect for VR6 enthusiasts seeking race-level strength and reliability. Professional installation and proper oil clearance measurement are recommended.
