It has been well-known that the class of quasi-cyclic (QC) codes contain many good codes. In this paper, a method to conduct a computer search for binary $2$-generator QC codes is presented, and a large number of good $2$-generator QC codes have been obtained. $5$ new binary QC codes that improve the lower bounds on minimum distance are presented. Furthermore, with new $2$-generator QC codes and Construction X, $2$ new improved binary linear codes are obtained. With the standard construction techniques, another $16$ new binary linear codes that improve the lower bound on the minimum distance have also been obtained.
