Eagle Chevy 250 CID 16 H-Beam Connecting Rods (Set of 6)

If you're working on a Chevrolet 250 cubic inch inline-6 engine, these Eagle H-Beam connecting rods are a solid choice for building a stronger powerplant. They are specifically designed for this popular engine, fitting a range of vehicles like the Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac Firebird, and Buick Skylark from the late 60s through the late 70s. These rods replace your stock components to handle more stress, making them ideal for builds that go beyond basic cruising.

Eagle starts with a two-piece forging of 4340 steel, a material known for its excellent strength and durability under high loads. This forging is then fully machined and shot-peened, a process that creates a smoother surface and helps relieve internal stresses, further increasing the rod's fatigue life. They are sold as a set of six, with each rod carefully weight-matched to the others. This attention to detail ensures balanced rotating assembly, which is crucial for smooth engine operation and longevity, especially when you're pushing the engine harder.

These connecting rods are intended for restricted competition use, meaning they are built to withstand the demands of racing or high-performance street applications. When installing, always refer to the manufacturer's detailed instructions to ensure proper fitment and torque specifications. A balanced rotating assembly is key to getting the most out of these well-built rods.
