ESP 5140 Steel I-Beam for Chevy Small Blocks

Alright, car enthusiasts, let’s talk about this 5.700" 5140 Steel I-Beam. If you’re diving into a build or just looking to beef up your engine setup, this is a solid choice. Made from 5140 steel, it’s tough as nails and built to withstand the kind of stress that comes with serious horsepower.

Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty. This I-beam is designed for Chevrolet small blocks, specifically with a 2.00" width. It’s got 3/8" ARP 8740 bolts holding everything together, which means you can trust it to stay put under pressure. These bolts are known for their high tensile strength, so you’re not just getting a piece of metal here; you’re getting reliability.

One thing to note: this product does contain nickel, which California has flagged for its cancer risks. So, if you’re in the Golden State, just a heads up on that Prop 65 warning. It's always good to know what you're working with.

As for fitment, this I-beam is universal, but I’d advise doing your homework to make sure it’s right for your setup. You want to ensure it matches your vehicle's specs and that you’re not left in the lurch. A little research goes a long way, trust me.

In short, if you’re looking to upgrade your Chevy small block with something that’s built to last, this ESP 5140 I-beam is worth considering. It’s a tough piece of engineering that’s ready to take on whatever you throw at it.

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.
