HP Cam Bearing Set - SBC +.010

The HP Cam Bearing Set - SBC +.010 by DURA-BOND is a precision-engineered camshaft bearing kit designed for small block Chevy engines undergoing performance modifications or rebuild operations. These oversize bearings are essential components for builders who have already honed or damaged their camshaft bore and need to restore proper clearance and oil flow. Whether you're completing a street performance build, restoring a classic small block, or recovering from bearing wear, this kit delivers the tight tolerances and durability that serious engine builders demand.

The +.010 inch oversize specification means these bearings are manufactured 0.010 inches larger in diameter than standard journal size, allowing them to fit properly in bores that have been honed or enlarged to accept oversize components. DURA-BOND cam bearings are constructed with a proprietary multi-layer composite design that combines superior load-carrying capacity with excellent conformability to slight bore irregularities—a critical advantage in high-horsepower applications where peak oil pressure and sustained RPM demand maximum protection. The standard journal configuration ensures compatibility with OEM and performance camshaft profiles, while the complete kit format eliminates the need to source individual bearings separately, reducing assembly errors and ensuring uniform clearance across all bearing positions.

This bearing set is ideal for small block Chevy engines—including 283, 305, 327, 350, and 400 cubic-inch variants—when a rebore or hone has been performed or when rebuilding an engine with a high-performance cam requiring tighter control of radial clearance. Installation requires careful measuring of bearing bore after honing and proper torque sequencing of camshaft retaining hardware to achieve manufacturer-specified oil clearances, typically 0.0015 to 0.0025 inches depending on bearing design and application. Mechanics and engine builders working on vintage Corvettes, Camaros, performance trucks, and street machines rely on DURA-BOND's reputation for consistency and longevity, making this kit a trusted choice for builds where bearing failure is not an option.
