Eagle Dodge Viper 8.0L ARP 2000 Bolts Forged 4340 Steel H-Beam Rods - Set of 8

If you're building a high-performance Dodge Viper engine, especially one intended for competition, you need connecting rods that can handle serious power. These Eagle H-beam connecting rods are forged from 4340 steel, a strong material chosen for its ability to withstand the intense pressures and stresses found in powerful V10 engines. They are constructed from a two-piece forging and then fully machined, with a shot-peened surface finish that helps improve fatigue life. This means they are built to last under demanding conditions.

Eagle pays close attention to detail with these rods. They are sold as a weight-matched set, ensuring that each rod in your engine assembly is as close as possible in weight to the others. This is crucial for maintaining proper engine balance and smooth operation at high RPMs. The rods come equipped with ARP 2000 bolts, which are a step up from standard fasteners and offer even greater clamping force and reliability when you're pushing your Viper's engine to its limits. The sizing is held to exact tolerances, making them a solid choice for a precision engine build.

These rods are specifically recommended for competition use, indicating their robust construction and power-handling capabilities. When you're assembling a Viper engine that needs to perform reliably under extreme loads, components like these connecting rods are essential for achieving your goals.
