If you’re looking to beef up your ride, you’ve got to check out these Eagle Extreme Duty Connecting Rods. I’ve been in the game long enough to know that quality matters, and Eagle has been delivering just that for years. They started out focusing on crankshafts and connecting rods, and honestly, it shows. These guys know their stuff, and their commitment to innovation is what keeps them at the top of the aftermarket scene.

Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of these bad boys. Made from forged 4340 steel, these H-beam rods are built to handle some serious power. They’re not just forged; they’re shot-peened and polished to give you a surface that’s as smooth as it gets. This attention to detail means they’re holding tight tolerances, so you can trust they’ll fit like a glove. Just make sure to specify the weight you need when you order because these rods are all about that custom touch.

These aren’t your run-of-the-mill connecting rods. They’re designed for extreme applications, which means whether you’re pushing your Chevy Cavalier Z24 or Malibu to the limit, you’ll have the strength you need. With a center-to-center length of 5.806 inches and a pin size of 0.866 inches, these rods are engineered for performance. Plus, they come with ARP Custom Age 625+ bolts, so you know they’re not going anywhere once they’re in place.

Here’s a quick rundown of the specs that really matter:

  • Set of 4 rods
  • Material: Forged 4340 steel
  • Center to center length: 5.806 inches
  • Pin size: 0.866 inches

Who is EAGLE?

EAGLE SPECIALTY PRODUCTS, aka EAGLE, has been at the forefront of developing top-quality engine components. The company officially started back in 1992 but has been developing their product for ten years prior.  Since the company started, it has continuously produced some of the market's best engine components and is widely used by engine builders worldwide.

Imitated But Not Duplicated

Due to the company's success, its products have been imitated by other companies even up to the part numbers. But the similarity ends only up to how they look. EAGLE uses the finest materials and has invested in the most state-of-the-art manufacturing machinery for them to create a product that would be able to take any punishment it is subjected to. It is tested to be superior to other brands and considered the best upgrade for OEM counterparts.

No To Shortcuts

The company sets the benchmark on how valves should be properly made. Using their years of experience creating rods, they have already designed over 200 different rods and 180 crankshafts. The company does not allow cost to compromise its material used, manufacturing process, and quality test. 

High-End Quality

All of Eagle's products are made up of high-quality materials. They use certified 4340 Chromoly steel. Using their own special heat treatment process, they are able to create a product that is much stronger compared to other competitors using the same raw material. 

They manufacture their rods using a 2-piece forging process that allows the rod to be stronger. This process orients the "grain" of the metal to the direction of the stress. Eagle uses a state-of-the-art Sunnen Krossgrinding system that allows them to create perfect cuts and bore consistently.
