The ACL Race Series Connecting Rod Bearing Set for BMW’s S62 engine is made for those who demand more from their V8. The 5.0-liter powerhouse under the hood of the E39 M5 and Z8 was built for precision and performance, but once heat builds, oil thins, and RPMs stay high, the factory bearings can become a weak link. ACL’s Race Series bearings are engineered to handle those extremes—where strength, temperature control, and reliability all matter at once. Each bearing features ACL’s proven tri-metal construction: a hardened steel backing for structural rigidity, a copper-lead layer for load-bearing strength, and a precision overlay that maintains a stable oil film under pressure. That design minimizes friction, keeps oil flow steady, and protects your crank and rods through high-rev pulls, fast shifts, and long-distance runs. Built with materials trusted in top-level motorsport, these bearings deliver exceptional fatigue resistance and dimensional stability. They hold clearances tight, maintain consistent oil pressure, and stay smooth even under constant thermal cycling—something every S62 owner values when pushing to redline. Installation is simple and precise. ACL designed these bearings as a direct-fit replacement for BMW’s S62 engine found in the E39 M5 and Z8. No machining or modifications—just perfect OEM geometry combined with the durability of race-ready construction. For M5 and Z8 owners chasing reliability under high stress, ACL Race Series bearings are a proven solution. They strengthen the foundation of the S62, keeping it cool, balanced, and dependable through every high-RPM run and every demanding drive.

PREPREG is a common term for a reinforcing fabric such carbon which has been pre-impregnated with a resin system. This resin system (typically epoxy) already includes the proper curing agent. As a result, the prepreg is ready to be laid into the mold without the addition of any more resin. In order for the laminate to cure, an autoclave production process is used, a combination of high pressure and heat.

  • Maximum strength and performance characterictics. In a hand layup production process, it is difficult to achieve 50% fabric and 50% resin content.  Typical hand laminates, even when vacuum bagged, end up with a significant amount of excess resin. Excess resin increases brittleness and reduces overall strength properties. On the other hand, most prepregs contain around 35% resin. This is ideal for maximum cured properties and generally impossible to achieve in normal hand lamination.
  • Uniformity and repeatability. The prepreg is of uniform thickness and each part coming out of the mold may theoretically be the same. Vacuum bagging technology may have some errors in processing, but prepreg ensures production consistency.
  • Reduce curing time. After the thermal curing cycle, no need to wait for the standard 48 hours can be fully cured.
  • Aesthetics. Although prepreg processing still requires mold preparation and demoulding, prepreg processing eliminates air bubbles, makes it easier to obtain a smooth, glossy surface as well as eliminates any seaming lines.
