The original "S" and Sprite 1275cc engines only have a rod journal diameter of 1.625. These later motors have a journal size of 1.750"; bigger bearing- longer life! These bearings are + .040" size.

These Bi-Metal King brand engine bearings can be had for much less than the other brands, and common sense says they're more than adequate for road use.
