Detailed Description

Sealed Power 8-3360CPA is engineered for Ford big-block engines where correct bearing dimensions matter. The overplated copper-lead alloy construction supports stable operation under engine load, while the standard-size OE replacement design helps maintain factory-style fitment in rebuilt or refreshed engines. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 8B818P, CB818P8) for the same application.

Use this rod bearing set when servicing Ford 429 and 460 engines in vehicles such as the Ford F-250, Ford F-350, Ford E-350 Econoline, Ford F-150, Lincoln Continental, and Mercury Marquis. The Sealed Power 8-3360CPA part number is also useful when matching replacement bearings against standard-size engine specifications during rebuild work.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring proper connecting rod bearing clearance in Ford 429 and 460 engines
• Replacing worn bearings that can cause rod knock or low oil pressure symptoms
• Addressing scoring, fatigue, or heat-related bearing wear during engine rebuilds
• Returning smooth crankshaft support in high-mileage Ford big-block applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify crankshaft journal size, housing bore, and oil clearance before installation. Confirm the engine family and displacement match the vehicle application, since Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury models listed here may use different engine combinations. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly and follow factory torque and lubrication procedures during assembly. The 8-3360CPA should be matched to standard-size components only unless machining and measurement confirm otherwise.
