Mahle Main Bearing Set for VW 1200-1600cc, .50 mm Case, .25 mm Crank, 1.00 mm Thrust

A case line bored .50 mm oversize with a crank ground .25 mm undersize is a common first rebuild combination, and this Mahle set covers it with a 1.00 mm thrust. The center main is steel backed with an aluminum face rather than all aluminum, which helps protect the center main web.
