One new set of aluminum rods (Superod), for narrow journal stock-stroke off-center appl, 6.2", .990"pin. Also includes used set w/a few passes on them (no street miles). $75
Speaking of street miles:
"In a street application, using the aluminum rod is a no brainer," BME President, Bill Miller recently said in an interview with an automotive magazine. "I don't know exactly how the myth that aluminum rods can't be used on the street got started, but I'll guess that early manufacturers of aluminum rods, back in the 60s and early-70s, weren't makin' them using the forging process we're using. With the material we've got and they way we manufacture the connecting rods, they'll live a couple hundred thousand miles on the street because a street application is, for the most part, low load. You gotta understand, our basic Aluminum Rod is made for 10,000 rpm and 800-hp. The design criteria for the connecting rod is way overkill for what it's gonna see on the street. We been runnin' aluminum rods on the street for 20 years.”
FWIW,
