Carrillo 04-09 GM Ecotec 2.0 Super Charged (LSJ) Pro-SA 3/8 WMC Bolt Connecting Rods (Set of 4)

Carrillo is well-known for making strong internal engine components, and these Pro-SA connecting rods are a prime example. If you're working on the Ecotec 2.0 Super Charged (LSJ) engine found in your 2004-2007 Saturn Ion or 2005-2007 Chevrolet Cobalt, these rods are built to handle the demands of a performance build. They are designed to be a direct replacement for your stock connecting rods, but with a significant upgrade in strength and reliability.

These rods feature a Pro-SA design, which is Carrillo's popular H-beam style, known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio. They are forged from high-strength steel and come equipped with 3/8 inch WMC bolts, which are specifically chosen for their durability and ability to withstand high clamping loads. This robust construction means they can handle increased cylinder pressures and RPMs that often come with supercharged applications. The set includes four rods, enough for a complete engine rebuild.

When building or rebuilding an engine, especially one that's supercharged, the connecting rods are a critical component. Choosing well-built rods like these from Carrillo ensures that your engine's rotating assembly can reliably transfer power from the pistons to the crankshaft. Make sure to consult your service manual for proper installation procedures and torque specifications when installing these high-performance connecting rods.
