FAQ
Is this a full set?
Yes. “(8)” means eight bearing pairs (16 shells) — one pair per connecting rod.
When do I use .25 mm undersize?
When the crank rod journals have been ground to 0.25 mm (.010") under standard. Always measure and verify oil clearance.
Do these fit all 2001–2016 Duramax engines?
They cover LB7, LLY, LBZ, LMM, and LML applications that use “B”-stamped rods. If your rods are stamped “A,” use the CB-1990P family.
Are these tri-metal?
Yes — TM-77 tri-metal overlay with a hardened steel back, medium eccentricity, and high crush for retention.
