Eagle Ford 4.6 3/8in ARP8740 H-Beam Connecting Rods (Set of 8 )
$751.99

If you’re looking to give your engine a serious boost, check out the Eagle H-beam connecting rods. These bad boys are built to handle some serious power without the extra weight of stock rods. Made from 2-piece forged, vacuum-degassed 4340-certified steel, they strike a great balance between strength and weight savings. You’ll notice the difference right away.

What really sets these rods apart is the attention to detail in their construction. Each one goes through a rigorous multi-stage heat treatment process, plus they’re X-rayed, sonic-tested, and magnafluxed to ensure there are no hidden flaws. They’re fully machined and shot-peened to relieve stress, so you can trust they’ll hold up under pressure. The precision cap alignment sleeves help keep everything in place, and if you’re into floating pin models, you’ll appreciate the silicon bronze bushings that come standard. Plus, if you’re planning on going big with your stroke, there are stroker models available that provide extra cam-to-rod clearance.

Now, let’s talk about the hardware. You’ve got options here: standard with ARP 8740 bolts rated at 190,000 psi, or you can step it up to ARP 2000 bolts rated at 230,000 psi. If you really want to go all in, there are ARP L-19 bolts that crank it up to 265,000 psi. Instructions and rod bolt lubrication are included, so you’re all set to get these installed without a hitch.

Features:

  • 2-piece forged construction for added durability
  • Made from 4340-certified steel for strength
  • Multiple PSI ratings available to suit your build

Fitment:

  • Ford Crown Victoria 1995-1996 & 1998-2009

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.
