So i have these bearings for a b18c5. ACL race bearings.
I have a b18c1 , just wondering if they would work. The only difference between the two is
b18c5 is + 0.001" Extra for oil clearence then the b18c1 and also Max Wall at Crown 0.0591" / 1.502mm on b18c1 and 0.0586" /1.489mm on the b18c5

would the b18c5 bearings stil lwork or no?

use the right bearings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

.0591" is green, while .0586 is red. (that's the width of the bearings, fyi)

It's a big difference. That could be a clearance difference from .002, which is what Honda tries to do from factory, to .15, which is a pretty big difference when it comes to oil clearances.

You need to measure everything, and look at your crank/block to see which bearings your engine calls for.
