Carrillo BMW S38B36 Pro-H 3/8 CARR Bolt Connecting Rods (Set of 6)

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1988, 1991-1993 BMW M5 or 1987-1988 M6, especially for performance applications, a strong set of connecting rods is crucial. These Carrillo Pro-H connecting rods are built to handle the increased stress and power that comes with a performance engine build. They are designed to be a direct replacement for your stock rods, ensuring a proper fit during installation.

Carrillo is well-known for making robust engine components, and these rods are no exception. They feature a Pro-H beam design, which is a strong and reliable profile for connecting rods. This particular set uses 3/8" CARR bolts, a proprietary fastener from Carrillo that offers a secure and strong connection between the rod and cap. The material and construction are chosen to withstand higher cylinder pressures and RPMs compared to stock components, making them a solid choice for enthusiasts looking to push their S38B36 engine further. Each rod is precisely machined to ensure consistent weight and balance within the set, which is important for engine longevity and smooth operation at higher speeds.

This set includes six connecting rods, enough for a complete six-cylinder engine. When installing these, it's always a good idea to refer to the manufacturer's detailed installation instructions to ensure everything is torqued to spec and properly aligned. These rods are a significant upgrade for anyone serious about building a reliable, high-performance engine for their BMW M5 or M6.
