HP Cam Bearing Set - BBC +.010in

The HP Cam Bearing Set - BBC +.010in from DURA-BOND is a precision-engineered bearing solution designed for serious big-block Chevrolet engine builders and performance enthusiasts. This oversize cam bearing set addresses the common wear issue in high-mileage BBC engines where standard bearing clearances become excessive, requiring upsized components to restore proper camshaft geometry and oil distribution. Whether you're rebuilding a street engine, preparing a dedicated race motor, or restoring a vintage muscle car, properly fitted cam bearings are critical to long-term reliability and consistent performance.

DURA-BOND's HP series cam bearings feature precision-rolled, tri-metal construction that combines a steel backing, copper-lead intermediate layer, and a specialized overlay designed for superior load distribution and oil retention. The +.010in oversize specification means these bearings accommodate a camshaft with a 0.010-inch enlarged diameter, ensuring tight, controlled clearances that maintain proper camshaft support and prevent harmful radial and axial movement during operation. This design is essential for maintaining optimal engine performance under demanding conditions.

This bearing set is ideal for rebuilders who have determined that their BBC camshaft has wear that requires oversizing or for engine shops performing complete restorations. The compact bearing set is designed to fit the standard BBC block configuration, making installation straightforward for experienced engine builders familiar with proper bearing sizing and clearance procedures. With the right cam bearings, you can ensure your engine runs smoothly and efficiently for years to come.
