Eagle I-Beam Connecting Rods w/ ARP 2000 Chevrolet LS 4.5L | 5.3L | LS1 1997-2007 - SIR6100N2000

If you're looking to beef up your ride's internals, these forged 5140 steel I-Beam connecting rods are a solid choice. They’re a step up from what you typically find in your stock setup, and trust me, you can feel the difference. The shot-peened surface not only adds durability but also helps in reducing stress concentrations. Plus, they’re weight-matched, so you don’t have to worry about any imbalances messing with your engine's performance.

Now, let’s dive into the specs. You’ll get a set of 8 rods, each built with 3/8" ARP 2000 bolts. The center-to-center length is 6.100", making them perfect for a variety of setups. The pin size is 0.943, and the big end width comes in at 0.94. These rods are designed to handle the demands of naturally aspirated, pump gas engines, making them a great fit for road cars that need a little extra oomph.

  • Material: Forged 5140 Steel
  • Typical Weight: 595g
  • Pin End Width: 1.063
  • Rod Journal: 2.1
  • Housing Bore: 2.225
  • Silicon-Bronze pin bushing: Full-floating piston pins for smooth operation.

Now, if you’re wondering where these bad boys fit, here’s the scoop:

  • Chevrolet Silverado 1997-2007
  • Chevrolet Express 2003-2007
  • Chevrolet Avalanche 2002-2006
  • Chevrolet Tahoe 2000-2006
  • Chevrolet Corvette C5 1997-2004
  • Chevrolet Camaro 1998-2002

Just a heads up: when you install these, make sure to torque them to 60 ft-lbs using ARP Moly Lube. It’s crucial for keeping everything running smoothly. So, if you’re ready to take your engine build to the next level, these connecting rods are a smart investment. They’ll give you the reliability and performance you need for those spirited drives.

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.
