Description

The Hot Rods Connecting Rod Kit is engineered for exceptional durability and performance. Manufactured from certified 8620 AISI steel, these connecting rods offer superior strength compared to standard OE replacements. The crankpins are made from hot-rolled ASTM 4115 and case hardened to a level of 58-62Rc for maximum wear resistance. The latest caged needle roller bearing designs ensure high RPM longevity, while the uniquely designed big end incorporates strategically located side scalloping and vent slots to minimize bearing race distortion at high RPM. Small ends are double drilled to provide extra lubrication and cooling to the wrist pin bearing, which is especially crucial when the piston crown is close to the wrist pin bearing. The connecting rods are also shot-peened to eliminate surface stress risers and smoothly blend the rod forging's radiuses, and double honing creates an ultra-round bearing surface for exceptional reliability at high RPM. Compatible with both Hot Rods and OE crankshafts, this kit offers a seamless upgrade to your engine. Increase the reliability of your 4-cycle engine with this connecting rod kit; designed for performance and longevity.
