If you’re looking to breathe new life into your Ford 289 or 302 engine, the Eagle Street & Strip Rotating Assembly is a solid choice. I’ve had my hands on this assembly, and it’s clear that Eagle really knows what they’re doing. Instead of spending a fortune reworking old parts, this assembly gives you a fresh start without cutting corners on quality. It’s designed for those of us who want to run naturally-aspirated, pump gas street engines that still pack a punch.

This balanced assembly features a 3.400" cast crank and 5.400" I-Beam rods that feel sturdy and reliable. The forged 4032 Mahle flat-top pistons with a -6cc dome volume fit snugly, and the plasma-moly file-fit rings ensure a tight seal. You’ll also find King SI rod and main bearings in the mix, along with a Pioneer damper and a 157-tooth flexplate. It’s all about performance here, and this setup delivers.

Features

  • Assembly Balanced: absolutely, because balance is key for smooth operation.
  • Balance type: external 28in-oz, which is just right for street and strip applications.
  • Connecting rod bolt diameter: 3/8", using ARP 8740 bolts for that extra security.
  • Connecting rod design: I-Beam, forged from 5140 steel, so you know they’re built to last.
  • Crankshaft stroke: 3.400", giving you a nice balance of torque and RPM potential.
  • Cylinder bore diameter: 4.040", which works well with the pistons for a solid compression ratio.
  • Damper included: yes, so you can get everything installed and running without hunting for extra parts.
  • 157-tooth flexplate included, making it a breeze to hook up to your transmission.
  • Main bearing type: O.E. replacement, ensuring compatibility with your setup.
  • Oil rail support included: yes, which is crucial for maintaining oil pressure.
  • Piston brand: Mahle, a name you can trust in the performance world.
  • Piston pin type: full floating, allowing for a bit of movement that helps with performance.
  • Rod bearing type: O.E. replacement, keeping it simple and effective.
  • Just a heads up, you might need to do some minor clearancing of the block at the bottom of the cylinders and pan rails to get everything to fit right.

Notes:

Universal Fitment: This assembly is designed to fit a range of setups, but it’s always a good idea to double-check compatibility with your specific vehicle. A little research goes a long way in ensuring a smooth installation.

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.
