Connecting rods in modern high performance and racing engines, are subject
to far more abuse than in years past, luckily, modern I beam and H beam connecting
rods are up to the task. Advances in metallurgy and machining techniques, have
made superior automotive connecting rods available, at reasonable prices. Modern connecting
rods for performance and racing engines, as well as muscle car, hot rod and street
rod engines are most often made in two basic types, the I-beam and the H-beam. Also
available are aluminum connecting rods, and billet steel, and even titanium connecting
rods for limited applications.
If you choose the correct connecting rod for your application, and install
it properly, and maintain proper lubrication to it, while not subjecting your engine to
detonation or excessive lean conditions, you will have the foundation for a strong,
dependable rotating assembly that will last for many engine cycles, while giving trouble
free service. You should always choose a performance connecting rod that is rated for the
amount of power and type of driving you intend on doing. You can always go with a stronger
rod than needed, for additional durability, but choosing a rod with less strength than
required for your engine, is asking for trouble. On top of the fact that modern engines
are making far more power than ever, with the use of turbo chargers, super chargers and
nitrous, pistons, connecting rods and crankshafts are being more highly stressed than
ever. Fortunately, the parts are available to stand up the the demands of current HP and
race engines.
