Eagle Dodge 5.7/6.1L Hemi 6.243 Length 4340 Forged Steel Connecting Rods (Set of 8)

If you're building a high-performance Dodge Hemi engine for serious competition, you need connecting rods that can handle the stress. These Eagle H-Beam connecting rods are specifically made for the 5.7L and 6.1L Hemi engines, featuring a 6.243-inch length and a .927-inch pin diameter, designed to fit right into your build.

Crafted from forged 4340 steel, these rods start as a two-piece forging and undergo a fully machined process. The surface is then shot-peened, a treatment that helps reduce stress and improve fatigue life, which is crucial when you're pushing an engine hard. Eagle holds the sizing to exact tolerances, and they're sold as a weight-matched set, ensuring that each rod in your engine assembly is as close as possible to the others. This attention to detail is important for engine balance and longevity, especially in competition applications.

Because these are intended for competition use, it's important to ensure your entire engine assembly is up to the task. Proper balancing, quality fasteners, and appropriate machining are all key when installing these types of performance components. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details regarding assembly and torque specifications.
