Oldsmobile Cutlass Camshaft Bearing provides smooth rotation to the engine's valve-controlling shaft by suspending it on an oil film that helps reduce friction and wear. This Camshaft Bearing is a plain, cylindrical case pressed into precision-machined block bores and fed pressurized lubricant from the pump to keep metal parts separated, maintaining quiet, accurate valve timing. Over the history of Oldsmobile, there have been two main construction families. The bi-metal Camshaft Bearing has the bond of an aluminum-silicone alloy lining with a steel backing to provide hard, seizure-resistant surfaces for everyday driving that Cutlass owners appreciate. Higher demand versions often feature the tri-metal Camshaft Bearing, which incorporates an extra layer of copper as an intermediary, along with a lead-tin-copper overlay for added strength and fatigue resistance and for absorbing tiny contaminants, all desirable characteristics in performance or racing trims of the Cutlass line. Regardless of type, each Camshaft Bearing must match housing size very closely with recommended oil clearance between 0.001 and 0.0035 inches to ensure proper oil flow without shaft wobble. Adequate crush built into the case assures firm seating when the block is torqued to ensure reliable service in every Oldsmobile engine that powers classic models.
