Description

The Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit is engineered for optimal performance and durability. Crafted from certified 8620 AISI steel, these connecting rods offer exceptional strength and resistance to wear. The crankpins are manufactured from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 steel and case hardened to a level of 58-62Rc, ensuring reliable performance at high RPMs. The innovative big end design features strategically located side scalloping and vent slots, minimizing bearing race distortion. Small ends are double drilled to enhance lubrication and cooling to the wrist pin bearing, which is especially crucial when the piston crown is close to the wrist pin bearing. Each rod is shot-peened to eliminate surface stress risers and double honed to produce an ultra-round bearing surface. This connecting rod kit is compatible with both Hot Rods and OE crankshafts, offering versatile application across a range of 4-cycle engines. Built to last and made in the USA, this kit provides a reliable and high-performance solution for your engine needs.
