This conrod bearing set is a high-quality replacement for the factory conrod bearings, manufactured to OEM specifications. This 8-piece set (one pair per connecting rod) maintains the correct oil film clearance between the connecting rods and crankshaft journals, ensuring smooth, friction-free rotation under high loads and high speeds.
Fits:
Porsche 924S - 1986 to 1988
Porsche 944 - 1982 to 1991
Porsche 968 - 1992 to 1995

This is the ideal choice for engine rebuilds, performance refreshes, or preventative maintenance, restoring factory oil pressure, crankshaft alignment, and smooth engine operation.
• Location: Connecting-rod big-end journal to crankshaft interface
• Function: Maintains oil film support for the crankshaft and absorbs combustion loads transferred through the rod assembly
• Set Contents: 8 bearing shells (4 rods / V8 engine)
• Replacement Interval: At rebuild or low oil-pressure diagnosis
• Benefits OEM fit, precise clearances, durable film strength, quiet operation
• Installation: Fit as matched pairs per rod; use assembly lube and torque to spec
Rod bearings endure constant load, heat, and oil pressure, which causes gradual wear or fatigue over time. This can result in low oil pressure, knocking noises, or even engine damage. It’s essential to replace them during an engine rebuild, crankshaft service, or whenever oil analysis shows metal debris or pressure loss. Installing a new set restores precise oil clearance, consistent pressure, and long-term reliability in the engine’s bottom end.

OEMatch Engine Bearings / Shells — Durability, Sealing, Performance
OEMatch engine bearings / shells for Porsche models are compatible replacements engineered to original-spec dimensions and tolerances — a practical option when genuine or OEM parts are unavailable. Shell bearings support crankshaft and connecting rod rotation, maintain oil clearance and distribute combustion loads to protect internal components.
Available Types- Big end (connecting rod) bearings
- Thrust bearings
- Main and journal bearing shells
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the engine bearings / shells and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM engine bearings / shells engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
- Restores correct oil clearance and lubrication
- Reduces knocking and vibration from worn journals
- Prevents crankshaft scoring and internal wear
- Oil starvation or sustained low oil pressure
- Contaminated or degraded engine oil introducing abrasive particles
- Incorrect clearance, poor installation or worn mating journals
- Tri‑metal and bi‑metal alloy options for thermal stability
- Precision-machined tolerances to maintain oil film and clearance
- Suitable for a wide range of air-cooled and water-cooled Porsche engines
